Before You Start
The first thing you must do, before entering any cheats is at the very start, before loading the actual game, on the Module selector area, Go to "Configure", and under the "Game" tab, make sure "Enable Cheats" has a check next to it. If it does not, click the empty box to the left of the selection, and the check inside of the box should appear. You will not have to do this each time you start up the game, as it saves your selection.

The next thing you should do before entering any cheats is that no matter what module (mod) you are playing, whether it is native or not native, make sure you are on the campaign map, and press CTRL and ~. Doing this will open the console, like shown:

In the console, type "cheatmenu" (do not include the "), press "Enter" or "Return" or whatever it is, and the box should disappear. If you do not type in "cheatmenu" in this exact way (without the ") it will likely not work.

NOTE: Some cheats work differently in some mods.

You are now fully fledged for the world of cheats in Mount & Blade: Warband.
Non-Battle Cheats
First, we will start with the cheats that are not used during battle.

Fast Forward time on campaign map (Not a cheat, but helpful) - CTRL + Space (Hold)

Gives XP in the character screen (Can be used on party members) - CTRL + X

Increases weapon proficiencies - CTRL + W

Gives 1000 Gold (while looking at inventory or market screen) - CTRL + X

Shows everything on campaign map (except hideouts) - CTRL + T

Level Up - SHIFT + L - WARNING: DO NOT GO PAST LEVEL 62

Teleports party to current mouse position - CTRL + Left Click

These are all of the useful non-battle cheats.
Battle Cheats
These are the cheats that are meant to be used during battle.

AI controls character during battles - CTRL + F5

All currently spawned enemies take blunt damage - CTRL + ALT + F4

All enemies zoomed in take damage - CTRL + SHIFT + F4

Heals you completely - CTRL + H

Heals your horse (if you are currently riding one) - CTRL + SHIFT + H

Damage yourself - CTRL + F3

All currently spawned friendlies take blunt damage - CTRL + SHIFT + F6

One friendly takes blunt damage - CTRL + F6

Deals a small amount of damage to a single enemy - CTRL + F4

Slow Motion (Toggle) - CTRL + F9

Stops time at battle - CTRL + F11

These are all of the useful battle cheats.
Cheat Table Cheats
Now that you have entered "cheatmenu" into the console, you have a variety of extra little things that can help you out. For instance, you can obtain any item you want.

Make sure that are the campaign map for this. Go to Camp, and you should see a selection that says "CHEAT MENU!" Click on it, and you will enter a second vast world of cheats. If you want to know what one does, say it in the comments, and I will try my best to explain it.
Turning Off Cheats
To turn off cheats, you must simply restart the game, and in the module section, go to Configure, and under game, uncheck the box. This will disable most of them. To get rid of the others, you may have to type "nocheatmenu" in the box that you typed "cheatmenu" in. If this doesn't work, I would love for someone to tell me what actually works or if this works at all.
Conclusion
This is my cheat guide for Mount & Blade: Warband. If you have found any mistakes in my guide (which are probably going to be common), or if you would like me to add something, I would love some feedback. I do respond to anything that I feel is worthy to be responded to, as long as it is respectful and understandable. I thank you for checking out my guide.

If you find yourself having trouble using one of the commands, make sure to leave a comment about what the problem is, and subscribe to the thread until I respond.

Regards,
Gromm

Just a small nitpick but CTRL-SPACE to speed up time on the campaign map is not a cheat and does not require cheats enabled.

Scramble Minstrels shows you where the bards are that teach poems to you. It posts it in the chat, which can be opened by pressing L, i'm pretty sure.

I believe it's the feed overflowing and just trying to catch up with everything. Go fight someone and it should return to normal. I'm a cheap ass player when I cheat and I give myself obscene amounts of money so I can have premium troops without having to work my ass off battling. So when I give myself that money (ctrl-x in inventory), I've noticed that if the command is inputed fast enough, one can eventually get the feed to move down and off screen.
