When using the get_terms() function in an ajax function, get_terms() return an empty array.If the user is logged in, get_terms() actually returns a list of terms.

Could you share your ajax.js file too?

Note that wp_enqueue_script() should be hooked to wp_enqueue_scripts action rather than called directly in the plugin body: ​http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_enqueue_script.

Based on my tests and the found solution (not workaround) I suggest this does *not* qualify as a bug. After investigating, we solved the issue by updating the rights in the

Roles > options > Realm > Post Type Usage

section. By unchecking the checkbox labelled "Realisations" we specified that this Custom Type could not have Restrictions and Roles. Once saved we got a properly working drop-down menu even for non logged-in users.
Rather a settings issue then, quite easy to get lost into given the huge features of WP, even more so once extented to permissions and custom types.

I hope this helps,

Pierre.
