I’ve rewrote my function tax_get_field_data another way:

function taz_get_field_data($shortcodeID){
	if (class_exists('acf')){
		if (have_rows('taz_features')){
			$counter = 0;
			while (have_rows('taz_features')){
				the_row();
				if ($counter === $shortcodeID){
					return get_row(true);
				}
				$counter++;
			}
		}
	} else {
		error_log("taz_get_field_data(): ACF Plugin is not available.");
		return null;
	}
}

Since the_row is not formatted, I was hoping for the best and did my formatting only on the wanted row with get_row(true).
Sadly, even if I don’t have an infinite loop anymore, the result is messed up.
get_row(), as get_field() are parsing the included shortcodes [taz_features] shortcode! Why??? Why “format_value” cares of “do_shortcode”.
I’m missing the ability to format the array, to get [content] key rather than [field_583b166074db8_field_57e024d987a79], but I don’t need the actual value to be parsed. This, I’ll take care later on my code.

Any idea?
