Editor & Formatting Guide

Selah uses a powerful block-based editor. This means every paragraph, image, or list is its own independent block that you can drag, drop, and transform.

The Slash Menu ( / )

The fastest way to add content is to type a forward slash / on an empty line. This opens a menu where you can instantly insert:

  • Headings (H1, H2, H3)
  • Checklists, Bullet points, and Numbered lists
  • Callouts (for highlighting important info)
  • Images, Videos, and Files
  • Scripture Blocks (for Bible verses)

Wiki-Links ( [[ )

To connect your notes together, type [[ (two open square brackets). A search menu will pop up. Start typing the name of another note in your vault, and press Enter to link it.
Example: Typing [[October 5 will link to your journal entry from October 5th.

Markdown Shortcuts

If you like typing fast, Selah supports standard Markdown shortcuts:

  • Type # + Space for a Heading 1
  • Type - + Space for a bullet list
  • Type [] + Space for a checklist
  • Type > + Space for a blockquote
  • Type --- for a horizontal divider line

Drag & Drop

You can drag any image, PDF, or file directly from your computer into the editor, and Selah will automatically save it to your vault and embed it into the note.
