Kiosk Mode Integration home assistant

Configuration Frontend
1

Hi all,

I am using the kiosk-mode integration to try to make my non admin accounts have no dashboard etc.
However, using this code:

kiosk_mode:
  admin_settings:
    hide_header: true

Leads to all accounts, regardless of admin or not, having no top bar and side bar

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

You might try adding a non-admin setting as well. Here’s what I do for one dashboard I have that I want everyone but admins to do full kiosk mode.

kiosk_mode:
  admin_settings:
    kiosk: false
  non_admin_settings:
    kiosk: true
    hide_notifications: true

I went a bit further: i added this:

kiosk_mode:
  admin_settings:
    kiosk: false
    ignore_entity_settings: true
  user_settings:
    - users:
        - username1
        - username2 #but i guess you can leave users out if you have a single one
      ignore_entity_settings: false
  entity_settings:
    - entity:
        input_boolean.kiosk_enabled 'on'
      kiosk: true
      hide_menubutton: true

I created helper “input_boolean.kiosk_enabled” and if it’s enabled then kiosk mode is enabled for users, but i can always disable this boolean and all is shown again - usefull for some modifications, like themes etc…of a user.

Thanks. This doesn’t work though :confused:

Odd. I did see that there is an update to Kiosk Mode a couple days ago. The release notes don’t indicate anything that would fix this for you, but it wouldn’t hurt. Also, with Kiosk mode you have to clear your browser cache to make sure it loads properly, so that might be worth trying as well.
