First configure the Greeter in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf:

sudo gedit /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf

~~greeter-session=lightdm-another-gtk-greeter~~ # This sets the lightDM-another-greeter

# This sets the lightDM-another-greeter:

~~user~~-session=~~xfce~~ # Depends on Desktop it Sets to your standard desktop

greeter-session=lightdm-another-gtk-greeter

# Depends on Desktop it Sets to your standard desktop:

user-session=xfce
