Okay, I tried using this new method, but it doesn't seem to work for me either. I still get the documents sidebar.

Seems pointless, I'm pretty sure we're just editing .katesession files via GUI.
- Open Kate
Set Settings > configure > sessions > save session ...check include window configuration
- Close the documents sidebar (Window -> Tool Views -> Hide
Documents)
That's it, close Kate and reopen that session
- Save the session (Sessions -> Save As -> somesession
Nothing I mentioned said anything about the Sessions menu, ignore it completely.
I didn't follow that much the discussion, so excuse me if I am repeating something already said.
I use many sessions related to different work subjects in kate. I just tried open kate close/hide the document/file view, closed kate. After this I opened kate and the view was hidden as expected. The default session is a bit odd, so I stopped using default long time ago. I recommend using custom session. you can remove the default one after creating your own.
