Reply To: pre populated repeater field

Desperately trying to get this to work. I thought I understood it but I am getting no pre-populated fields at all. My repeater field name is “games” with 4 sub-fields. The first sub-field name is “team” and is a text field. I’m trying to pre-populate the team field. Am I missing something?:

  function my_acf_load_value($value, $post_id, $field) {
    if ($value !== NULL) {
      // if the value is exactly NULL it means
      // the field has never been updated
      // we don't want to change fields that have already been editied
      return $value;
    }
    // set the new field value
    $value = array(
      // add a nested array for each row
      array(
        // add an array item for each sub field
        'team' => 'hello world?',
        'team_1' => 'hello world?', // with or without "_1, etc."?
      )
    );   return $value;
  }
  add_filter('acf/load_value/name=games', 'my_acf_load_value', 10, 3);
