I tried like you suggest.

add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'tsm_do_pre_save_post' );
function tsm_do_pre_save_post( $post_id ) {

	// Bail if not logged in or not able to post
	if ( ! ( can_user_post_recipe() ) ) {
		return $post_id;
	}

	// check if this is to be a new post
	if( $post_id != 'new' ) {
		return $post_id;
	}

	// Create a new post
	$post = array(
		'post_type'     => 'post', 
		'post_status'   => 'pending', 
		'post_title'    => wp_strip_all_tags($_POST['acf']['field_559a8e6366915']), // Post Title ACF field key
		'post_content'  => $_POST['acf']['field_559a8e7b66916'], // Post Content ACF field key
	);

	$post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );
	
	wp_set_object_terms($post_id, array(1829), 'category');
	
	// ACF image field key
	$image = $_POST['acf']['field_559a8eb766918'];
	
	// Bail if image field is empty
	if ( empty($image) ) {
		return $post_id;
	}

	// Add the value which is the image ID to the _thumbnail_id meta data for the current post
	add_post_meta( $post_id, '_thumbnail_id', $image );

	return $post_id;
	
}

Now the wp_set_object_terms seems to work nicely, but the thumbnail is not saved at all, and the original issue is still there: no repeater or flexible field saved in db.

Maybe I did not say this: in backend everything is working fine (since a lot of time)

I can’t see any error, not js in console, not php in server log.
