Kable produces longtable that is not compatible with "\twocolumn" documentclass option

[junchenfeng]

I want to produce a table in a two-column article. However I tweaked it (such as result="asis"), knitr still reports the following error when converting to pdf.

 ! Package longtable Error: longtable not in 1-column mode.

Ok, I found this thread on the pandoc project. It is an issue with pandoc and there is no good workaround. I close this issue because it is unrelated to knitr

I just encountered this issue while setting classoption: - twocolumn in the YAML header. Has this been resolved?

Have you look at the thread in pandoc linked from above #1348 (comment) ?

longtable and two column mode don't play well together in Latex. Pandoc use longtable for table environment. I don't think there is anything to do in knitr. Look at answers in Pandoc thread discussions. There is not generic answer but maybe some specific workaround that may work for you.
