Tip Tap API ​

Per-option reference for the deprecated TipTap field. For tasks and replacement guidance, see the Tip Tap guide.

Declare the field in your resource's fields method, for example in app/avo/resources/post.rb:

ruby
field :body, as: :tiptap, always_show: true

The declaration uses :tiptap, not :tip_tap. The field is hidden on Index by default, edits HTML content, and renders sanitized HTML on Show. For shared options such as placeholder text, visibility, and help text, see Field options.

Show presentation ​

always_show

Disables the collapsible content wrapper on Show so the full content remains visible. When false, the wrapper provides controls to expand and collapse long content. It does not change the editor or the stored value.

ruby
field :body, as: :tiptap, always_show: true
  • Type: Boolean
  • Default: false
  • Validation: No field-specific validation or Boolean coercion is performed.

Ruby truthiness

Only false and nil leave collapsing enabled. Values such as "false" and 0 disable collapsing. This option is not evaluated as a callback; passing a Proc makes it truthy without executing it.
