Is the sentence What if your order has been shipped correct?
"What if your order has been shipped" is not a sentence."If your order has been shipped" is a subordinate clause, so the original phrase has no predicate. You have to complete the sentence. For example:What should I do if your order has been shipped?What will happen if your order has been shipped?What is the problem if your order has been shipped?In ordinary conversation, a native English speaker will probably understand what you mean by "What if your order has been shipped" from the context in which it is said. But it is not a real sentence.

Why is the word order of who do you think you are different from that of what do you think is the problem?
There is no difference by rule. It is a reverse arrangement that becomes exclusive only for nominative personal pronouns (I, you, he, she, it, we, they).You could still say "what do you think the problem is."But the basic sentence is "what is the problem" and the modifier is do you think. So some grammarians recommend keeping the verb in the same order.The sentence "who do you think you are" is actually "who are you" and any other non-pronoun could form the reverse order sentence, e.g. who do you think is the culprit, which is identical to "who do you think the culprit is."
