unexpected T_CLASS errors – site shut down

I’m not really sure about the WordPress version but the wp_rest_user_meta_fields says @since 4.7.0 so there’s that

Site is http://alzimcomedy.com/

I first got a message “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLASS” and it said the error in wp_rest_user_meta_fields. I looked at that file and the file in my other WordPress sites and saw a line that was different so I deleted that line.

Then I message said:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_CLASS in /home4/ykmiller/public_html/alzimcomedy.com/wp-content/plugins/wordfence/vendor/wordfence/wf-waf/src/lib/config.php on line 8

So I renamed the WordFence plugin file folder to wordfence-bak and now the message says:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ABSTRACT in /home4/ykmiller/public_html/alzimcomedy.com/wp-content/themes/genesis/lib/admin/customizer.php on line 18

What is going on?

My other sites that are on the same server and run the same theme and plugins aren’t having this issue.

Try switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Seventeen.) for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins). If you don’t have access to your Dashboard’s Appearance page, use FTP/ SFTP , or your web-host’s cPanel or whatever file management application your host provides (no Dashboard access required). Navigate to /wp-content/themes/ and switch to the default theme by renaming your current theme’s folder by adding “-old” to the end of the folder name. Alternately, you can remove other themes except the default theme (Twenty Sixteen.). That will force your site to use it.

I tried that. Now the main site page doesn’t have an error message but it is blank.

/wp-login.php shows me the login screen but says my username is invalid. It’s not.

/wp-admin displays this message:

I did some digging and found suspicious files. I’ve been hacked.
