I need some help with pitch bending using a soundfont
Soundfont are actually embedded wave-files, so in that context you get the same effect from pitching a soundfont as you do with a wave-file, and that is wrong speed!
Because of that pitching soundfonts cant really be done sanely, however used as an effect, you can use automation of PITCH-dial on the SF2-Player
Remember that with a higher RANGE you get significant more change in pitch over the same automation.
If this is unclear, let me know, i can make a video for you.

Thx! But is there any other ways like any online plugins?

Most native LMMS instruments can use pitch-bend, but VSTs cant! -The feature it self is wonky to use. A tip that can make it a bit less tedious to use is that notes that has defined pitch-bend, can be copied with the made pitch-bend intact.
Automating PITCH is general supported.
But I wonder if you are looking for pr. notebased pitching? Eg do you want every note you play to have a bending?
That is different all together and can be achieved with VSTs that has discreet envelopes. One of these are Synth1
Was that what you wanted?

Thanks for the video! I am trying to pitch bend one note. Also I am not using VST I am using SF2 Player.
Then you have to use PITCH and automation.
a low RANGE will let you pitch most smoothly, whereas a high value in RANGE crates a stepped and not bend output.
A RANGE of 12 covers one octave
Do you need a video for this?
