Wordfence broke my website?

My site went down with a 500 error – no front end, no admin panel access.

I renamed my plugins folder via FTP and the site came back. I named it back to “plugins” then went one-by-one in the folder and renamed each individual plugin to “[plugin name]_old”. The site stayed at 500 error until I renamed Wordfence.

I reactivated all of my plugins besides Wordfence, but now every shortcode on my website is broken (and we use A LOT of shortcodes).

Post Grid just displays every type of post regardless of filter. Tickera and WooCommerce have stopped displaying anything via shortcode. LayerSliderWP will not appear correctly with shortcodes.

I am absolutely out of ideas and my company’s site is completely crippled with these shortcode errors. Does anyone have an idea of what I could look at to troubleshoot this? I backed up and repaired my database, backed up my files. I can’t wrap my head around this and I have emails flooding in about the website being messed up.
