grafana 9 sidebar shows when in kiosk=full mode

[alirezamansoori]

Upgrading from version 8 to 9.1.8 when kiosk mode is set to full, the sidebar navigation is showing.

I was under the impression that there may be a fix for this with 9.3.x release. It looks like the kiosk=full functionality is still broken.

i'm not seeing this, but my dashboards are set to auto-fit, do you have the options being passed to the dashboard? and is the dashboard larger than the screen (requires scrolling normally?)

After investigating, if you set the root url of Grafana, when Grafana redirecting to the home dashboard the kiosk option is not conservated.

But if you set the dashboard url instead of the root url, there is no redirect and the kiosk option is conservated

I have not tested with an authenticated Grafana instance.
