Addendum: Something IS happening – I just saw that the terms for the articles to be pulled have been successfully created, but no article (post) is being created.
RSS Feed Syndications are being created as standard posts and do so correctly when pressing “pull feed now”, but not through automatical pulling.
Automatic mode triggers only when someone opens your site in browser. Read this: https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/wp_schedule_event
Also it may not work if you are using some caching plugin. In both cases I would recommend you to use server cron instead of the auto mode: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cron
Thank you for your reply. However, as I stated above, I was using the cron-job and it gets triggered, which I can see by the plugin setting up tags. But the actual post is not being generated.
Sorry but this is impossible because manual and cron mode methods use absolutely the same algo. Perhaps you are using some caching plugin.
Both do not work, neither cron nor automatic. It works perfectly fine when I press the “Pull feed now” button. No caching plugin active.
That’s just impossible or there is some problem at your end. Just look at the stats in the right column. The plugin works well on over than 10,000 sites. This means there is no bug in the code (otherwise it wouldn’t work even at a single site). So we can make a conclusion: you are doing something wrong. Please understand, I can’t fix something which is not broken.
Ask you host admin to check the server settings. Try to disable all other plugins. Try to change the theme. Make sure your cron does really “open” the necessary page with a secret key (run the cron job manually from your server and watch what happened) etc.

Calling the cron-link from the browser doesn’t work either, nor does a terminal curl. The page gets called though (did a curl -v). Unfortunately, I don’t get any logfiles related to the pulling. Could you offer a hint on how to debug this issue?
Server log is the only way to find out the issue with your host settings.
Thanks, which one? Apache error log is empty after a curl.
I’m not familiar with your server software. You should ask your host admin to enable server logs and show you where to watch.
@bumblebeegames! How did you resolve that issue?
@cyberseo! Thank you for excellent plugin! It’s very useful and has all features and settings for RSS aggregation
To solve the issue first try to edit your crontab and set https:// protocol not http://
