Hi !

Firstly, thanks for your answer, this allow me to move up a bit !

But i’m still stuck there, here is my code before that i tried to integrate your answer

function my_load_cat($value, $post_id, $field){
    
$args = array( 'parent' => 779 );
$post_categories = wp_get_post_terms( get_the_ID(), 'category', array("fields" => "ids") );

if ( !empty( $post_categories ) ) {
  $args['exclude'] = $post_categories;
};
$categories = get_categories( $args );

Firstly i’ve created a function, and inside of it i ask wp to load only the category that are not belonging to the current post, and that they have the parent’s id as “779”

foreach (  $categories as $category ) {   
      $value[]=array(
        'field_5cd186302ef1c' => $category->name
      );
  };
  return $value;
};

And then i grab all those terms that i placed in a foreach loop, in order to have all of them inside of my repeater field

}
add_filter('acf/load_value/name=villes_a_ajouter_III', 'my_load_cat', 10, 3);

And at last i apply the filter that i want, in order to load all of them.

But this keep adding me some new row once i clicked on update the post, this is quite a bite a problem
