A thing which would be really nice is the possibility to add weapons, armor and equipment usable in my campaign world and which could be added to my campaign characters.
Much Obliged...
That has nothing to do with Modifiers in the homebrewer. This thread is for requesting Modifiers in the homebrewer.
Kind of hard to homebrew adding spells to a class or subclass if it's impossible via the system. Such as giving sorcerers free spells like some of the newer ones do. What did you think I wanted this ability for if not homebrew?

I think there is a miscommunication here as to what the Modifier part of "What additional modifiers would you like to see available in homebrew?" means. Maybe Stormknight or someone else from the DDB team could give a few existing examples (and even better if they were changes due to posts in this thread) so everyone is working from the same frame of reference. Because technically, everything is a modifier to something, and everything can be homebrewed.

in subclass (and other) homebrew there are check boxes for "hide in builder" and "hide in sheet", I would like a "hide in page" to make something not appear in the details page. The reason being that for some mechanics I have to create a variety of options, and so some child options appear more than once.

Fun fact, this functionality is enabled for Races and Subraces, but not for Subclasses. Its just under the other checkboxes that you listed. Bonus fun fact, while we know this functionality exists for Race Options (hiding them without hiding the feature itself), our version of the toolset can only enable it for entire Racial Traits, not individual options. And we know its possible for individual options to be hidden because if you make a copy of dragonborn, all of its options are hidden but the feature itself is not, and any options you add to it will be visible.
Similar to how we cant add "Modifiers" or "Spells" to Feat Options, and how we cant add "Actions" to Magic Items, the functionality either exists but has not been ported to other types of homebrew, or exists and hasnt been given to us in our version of the tool.
I would like to be able to make Homebrew Pact Boons for the Warlock. There's a lot of creative ideas I've seen or had, but can't use because of DnDBeyond's Limitations of creating or adding Homebrew.
I may have mentioned this before but if I have then I'll say it again, I want to make ammo, it can be done sloppily either by creating an item with charges or just adding several of the item. It's obvious that something is disallowed to homebrew that is already possible for items, when you copy Arrows of Slaying, for example, it can't be saved without selecting an item type.
If you are still taking suggestions I would love to be have a drop down that let's you check off which from limited types like the add proficiency bonus to "choose a skill" "choose a save" or "choose a weapon" you can check off boxes of which skills you want rather than sifting through the are ready paired options or it doesn't already exist have to say you get to pick form these but it acutally lets you pick and any then you have explain that the Dancer's Art class lets you only pick: Athletics, Acrobatics, or Performance, and not Persuasion, "no matter how much your hips don't lie"
I don't know if anyone has already requested it, but it would be super helpful to have additional spells slots added as a homebrew modifier.
For example, my character recently picked up a Homebrewed robe that in addition to other things grants an additional 2nd level spell slot per day. There is currently no way to implement this on dndbeyond.
can you add the option to add a bonus feat like in the ua2022 or strix haven student back ground.
That is already possible. On your character sheet, on the Features & Traits tab, under Feats you can click/tap “Manage Feats” and add bonus feats directly to your character sheet.
I want an item (and/or feat) to add spells to the known spells list for a character (i.e. a wizard's spellbook, and when they don't have the book the loos those known spells)

There is also a feat modifier already, it's just that modifiers currently aren't available to add to backgrounds, and it only lists certain feats (not all of them, and no homebrew ones).
D&D Beyond will definitely need to get their act together in adding the ability to add specific or chosen feats to backgrounds soon though, because more books now have them, and it's clearly what they're planning for 5.5e.

Former D&D Beyond Customer of six years: With the axing of piecemeal purchasing, lack of meaningful development, and toxic moderation the site isn't worth paying for anymore. I remain a free user only until my groups are done migrating from DDB, and if necessary D&D, after which I'm done. There are better systems owned by better companies out there.
I have unsubscribed from all topics and will not reply to messages. My homebrew is now 100% unsupported.

That modifier only works on Races, and only with the “Choose a Feat” Modifier Subtype.

It is very possible to add spells to a homebrewed subclass. Please check out the Subclasses & Races FAQ #14: (https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/131411-a-homebrewers-how-to-faq).

In the subclass homebrew we can create a "limited use" feature, I would like to be able to have the actions of other features consume these uses.
probably under the "reset type" drop-down...
Please check out my home-brewed Races, Spells, Feats, Magic Items, Backgrounds, and Subclasses.
Can we get actions on items already?

Under modifiers "Bonus - Choose Constitution, or Charisma." Not sure why it's not a thing.
Options for every combination of ability scores would be nice, at least every possible pair

Monster: Osprey Feat: Skill Mastery–Animal Handler (Provides DCs for training animals applicable to those with and without this feat)
