TipTap slash commands cheat sheet (full list)

Every slash command in the VeloCMS editor, from headings and lists to media embeds, AI blocks, and callouts, with keyboard shortcuts in one place.

The VeloCMS editor is built on TipTap, a ProseMirror-powered rich text framework. Typing / on a new empty line opens the slash command palette — a searchable menu of every content block the editor supports. Keep typing after the slash to filter by name (for example /heading, /bullet, /embed); here's the full list, organized by category.

Text and heading commands

  • Heading 2, Heading 3, Heading 4 — section headings (type /heading and use the arrow keys to pick the level; there is no top-level H1 command — H1 is reserved for the post title)
  • Paragraph — a plain text block, same as pressing Enter on a new line
  • Blockquote — a quote block with a left border accent (filter with /quote or /blockquote)
  • Divider — a horizontal rule separator

List commands

  • Bullet List — unordered list with bullets
  • Ordered List — numbered list

Media and embed commands

  • Image — upload an image from your device or paste a URL
  • Gallery — a responsive multi-image grid with an optional lightbox
  • Embed — YouTube, Vimeo, Spotify, SoundCloud, CodePen, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and Calendly, all through one command

Advanced and code commands

  • Table — a 3x3 table with a header row
  • Button — a call-to-action link
  • Code Block — syntax highlighted code (filter with /code or /codeblock)
  • Footnote — insert a numbered footnote reference

AI command

  • AI Assistant — opens the AI panel, where Generate, Rewrite, Translate, and Summarize (plus any saved prompt templates) are all one click away

The palette filters on the command's name as you type — /cod narrows to Code Block, and /ai narrows to AI Assistant. A partial match is enough; you don't need the exact word.
