I am building something and placed the first level platform. Then I added 2 platforms on top of it to make it kind of like a staircase. On the top level (which is the last step as well), I’m trying to place items and they won’t show up. They just “attach” to a wall nearby. Also, my sims are not going up and down stairs in their homes.

@savmoney666 The bug report for stairs is here Staircase Causes Route Failures please use that.
I've moved your post to general discussion, perhaps a builder here can assist you with your platform issue.

@savmoney666 I just did a couple of tests based on my interpretation of your description. Please clarify what ways your issue is similar and different and include some screenshots. Thanks!
I found that an object can only be placed in the center of a single-tile sized platform area. So, in this example in order to place an item I placed it on the left side of each platform 'stair', and the Sim could climb on the right side. To do this I needed to have two-tile wide exposed platform 'faux steps':
If I wanted to place an item on the platform 'faux steps' that were only one tile wide I needed to enable MOO and place the item far enough off to one side for the Sim to use the platform to step on. This was a bit fussy and took a bit of testing to get to work on the top one:
I also experimented with this when the platforms were against the wall with the same results.
Can I clarify a few things:
