When used in conjunction with Automatic Node Titles (http://drupal.org/project/auto_nodetitle ), every node created by FeedAPI has the same title - for example, using Automatic Node Titles I may set the title field of my feed item to "nodeid post-date". While automatic node titles works fine when I manually create a feed item, when I let FeedAPI create the feed items from a feed every piece of content has the exact same title (I.e. although automatic node titles is being called, for whatever reason it is unable to access the token content of the node being created)

Any ideas?

subscribing. I will need to use auto node title too.

Before i start testing, could this have to de with the module order? if autotitle is called before feedapi, it would make sense that nodetitles are all the same.

This is because FeedAPI does not use drupal_execute() to create nodes. I do not plan to change this.
http://drupal.org/node/547486 - i extended the known issues.

Also to be helpful, i suggest you to patch Automatic Node Titles and disable its functionality in cron time, so it won't mess up feedapi's nodes.
