Let’s check out the sample below:

1.  Introduction
    
2.  Are Bananas Safe for Dogs?
    

– Benefits of Bananas for Dogs

– Potential Hazards of Feeding Bananas to Dogs

3.  How to Feed Bananas to Dogs

– Moderation and Portion Control

– Preparation and Serving Ideas

4.  Other Fruits that are Safe for Dogs to Eat
    
5.  Conclusion
    

You can add “\[Table\]” or “\[List\]” as part of the heading at the end to instruct AI to write a table.

E.g.

**“4. Other Fruits that are Safe for Dogs to Eat \[Table\]”**

**“– Benefits of Bananas for Dogs \[List\]”**

But the table and list will skip if applied to H2 headings that consist of H3 headings.

**E.g., “3. How to Feed Bananas to Dogs \[Table\]”** will not work because there are H3 under it.

**Note:** Advanced mode limit to max 3 tables per article, Optimize mode support up to 10 tables.
