Is it possible to use multiple value modifiers in the same snippet? IE.) {{(characterlevel/2)@rounddown@min:2@max:9#unsigned}}
Yes, but it takes a little bit of finesse; you need to add 0 between every modifier. The above example would need to be written as {{(((characterlevel/2)@rounddown+0)@min:2+0)@max:9#unsigned}}
Does anyone know the snippet code for displaying current HP, i know the maxhp code?
Did you ever get an answer to this question? Snippet code for displaying current HP.
The answer can be determined in the 1st post of this thread. There is nothing for this listed there - because there isn't one and it would be unlikely there ever will be, as the entirely point of snippet boxes is for features, and isn't designed to track character sheet variable info. You already have a big box on the character sheet doing that for you.

I would like to add an ability that affects creatures within range that have fewer hit points than you do currently. Thus it would be nice if that amount was shown dynamically with the action. But if it doesn't exist, it doesn't exist.
Do the code snippets work on homebrew monsters? The Steel Defender still doesn't work right in DNDBeyond and I can't seem to get the snippets to work when trying to create my own so that I can make it easier to level it up.

Snippet codes only work in snippet fields, which can be found in subclass features, race features & feats.
Can the first post be updated for {{spellattack}}? I can only get that to work if I use {{spellattack:wis}} or something. It gives me an error if I leave off the ability score.
I'm fairly new to homebrewing so I just want to confirm, when homebrewing a background, when in skill proficiences, the snippet codes for skills would be Animal Handling, yes?

Is it still not possible to add action to items cause I know some things have stuff like [Reaction/] text [Reaction/] or could something like that could that be used for items?

No, actions can still not yet be added to magic items.
Neither snippets nor tooltips actual “do” anything (like add functional actions) to homebrews, they merely display data. Tooltips add those “hover over” displays, and snippets automatically apply things like calculations into static text.
Hey all, was wondering if you guys might be able to solve a conundrum I've been experiencing. Whilst creating a new subclass (sorcerer), a feature of how I should code it is giving me problems, I want to code 2d4 + spellcasting modifier with the 2d4 increasing to 3d4, and then 4d4, at the 11th and 16th class levels, respectively. How would I achieve this?

That was fun, though {{classlevel}} doesn't work in a custom action. {{classlevel}} does work in a subclass action though. So that snippet should work for you.
What about scaling damage die, such as with cantrips (2d6 at 5th, 3d6 at 7th etc. etc.) nvm, just looked up and saw my question answered I believe kekw XD

That is a tooltip which is discussed here.

No, actions can still not yet be added to magic items.
Things enclosed in brackets like that ( like how [ action ] help [/ action ] without spaces becomes help ) are not snippets, they are tooltips. You can learn about them here: https://www.dndbeyond.com/forums/dungeons-dragons-discussion/homebrew-house-rules/9811-how-to-add-tooltips

Ok thank you
Is there any code that makes it so that you take reduced damage from a certain type like ice
That's all handled by modifiers - snippets are a "display only" way of adding text with calculated values to the character sheet.
