Something must be in the way blocking the shifter maybe inside the car something fell into the console or the console was moved or the linkage underneath is bent ? if you can go from 1-2 and have neutral there but can't go further in the shift pattern I suspect what I listed also there could be a broken bushing in the linkage get under it after safely jacking up and put it on stands and inspect all linkage parts for missing or bent parts also look under the console first it easier for an object that's stuck in there ? ( a pen maybe )

2006 Ford Explorer shifts hard between 2nd & 3rd gears, both up & down, but shifts normal between 1st & 2nd, and in & out of overdrive. All was normal then almost not working the next

It sounds as though your valve body may have a lot of particulates that have entered into it causing the valves to act sluggishly. Unfortunately, this is a condition that can only be taken care of by your mechanic and is not something that the average person can fix themselves.

Hard to shift into first gear

Tighten clutch cable until the car would start to move when the clutch peddle is 50% depressed, Before you do that, with the clutch fully depressed and in 2nd gear, start the car and slowly let off the clutch. You may find that the clutch has to be released virtually all the way before the car moves. It should be at about that 50% I spoke about
