I'm using LightDM as a greeter.

I need to perform a command before the login screen. I've put a file called rotate.conf inside the /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d folder. That file contains a command to rotate the second monitor (it is the only way to have it works properly).

I've tried different rows of code but it seems it doesn't read that instruction.

[SeatDefaults]
command=xrandr --output DP-0 --rotate left

I've tried even without the [...] and command= but without success.

I've also added the last line in user.conf

[UserList]
minimum-uid=500
hidden-users=nobody nobody4 noaccess
hidden-shells=/bin/false /usr/sbin/nologin /sbin/nologin
greeter-setup-script=/etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d

What am I doing wrong?

You have to copy that file into /etc/init/lightdm not /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d folder.

Hopefully, this could solve your problem:
