Chrome - Full Screen setup - need to launch page with extension once

Post#1 by msreyes » 16 Jun 2022, 12:57

I have this extension that works with the specific webpage I put in homepage field.

I'd like it to be full screen so I disable address bar.

The complication is I need to launch the Chrome Extension once to put in parameters (in this case the homepage username and password fields).

Or is it possible to runonce a webpage so I can navigate and do this?

Hello msreyes,

You have 2 ways of achieving this:

1) enabling full persistence in the kiosk (mind it has some disadvantages) so your extension settings will be remembered:

2) buying customized build with your extension and extension settings hardcoded in the ISO (full persistence not needed).
If you are interested then please get in touch with builds@porteus-kiosk.org.

Thanks
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.
