How to enable custom wallpaper change in lightdm-gtk-greeter?
I installed Debian 11(xfce) and the lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings package . In lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings, I configured everything for myself and checked the box next to "Use a custom background if possible", but when I rebooted, the wallpaper did not change to custom, but remained standard.
How can I solve this problem and where should I "dig"?

After 10 hours I was able to solve the problem.
In my case, I just had to install the accountsservice
sudo apt install accountsservice
package
And then reboot the system twice.
And all the wallpaper change to custom (from the user's desktop) works!
Thanks everyone for the help! And all the best to you!
