I need to make stairs, slabs, and doors for my mod but I can't find out how. There does not seem to be any option when you are creating a block. Someone please help, this is urgent

You need to create custom 3d models for your blocks. I recommend using Blockbench, that is a free and very easy to use program for making 3d models.

However, for making them rotatable, you need to code :(

About the slabs:

RaolTheBest mentioned Blockbench to use for models.  If this works, I would recommend it over the other option, changing "block size" to 0.5 for Y while creating a block, as I'm pretty sure that would make for glitchy textures. (Although you could use this to make a block that looks like you're standing physically in it)

Slabs- Make a half-block model with bdcraft cubik lite or Mr. Crayfish, then change max y coord to 0.5.

Stairs- similar procedure to slabs, but you're gonna need to do a lot of rotation coding that I don't know how to do.

doors- I don't think this is possible without heavy coding. You could probably make a block kind of like a door using lots of add block procedures, but it would not swing open like vanilla doors
