Is there a way to disable do_shortcode() on a WYSIWYG field so that I can get the actual shortcode instead of the shortcode output when using get_field()?

Hi @Daniel Milner

Yep, the get_field / the_field functions contain a parameter to disable formatting. If you disable the formating, the value will be returned as is from the database (without executing shortcodes / formatting).

Check out the odcs for more info.
