[SOLVED] Howto fix Switch User grayed on Actions Buttons plugin

Hi, in Debian Stretch 9 the "Switch User" item in Action Buttons plugin is grayed and it isn't enabled.

As you suggested here https://forum.xfce.org/viewtopic.php?pid=43937#p43937 for Whisker Menu I've fixed it changing command for Switch Users (dm-tool switch-to-greeter).

Is it possible to associate same command in Action buttons?

Thanks.

Re: [SOLVED] Howto fix Switch User grayed on Actions Buttons plugin

The actions plugin uses the gdmflexiserver command to perform the switch user function. You can create the file /usr/local/bin/gdmflexiserver with the following content:

#!/bin/bash
dm-tool switch-to-greeter

...and make the file executable to get the same functionality.
