SDDM doesn't change theme when locking the PC

Hi, I returned to EOS in a long while, and well when I was changing the SDDM theme in the Plasma’s settings, no problems at all, except when I locked the screen (Win/Meta + L).

It seems that in my install of EOS for some reason it’s not changing the lock screen, it’s still using the default Breeze theme, but when I log out or reboot, the theme that I selected does work fine, what’s the problem here?

Is it a Wayland thing or is it using a different config? Since when I was browsing the sddm.conf.d folder in /etc, there’s 2 files here.


I tried searching for forums and everything, but most of them talk about a 10-wayland file that I don’t have, I have 10-endeavouros.conf instead.

Screen locking uses different settings. Have a look at System Settings → Screen Locking → Configure Appearance.

I see, I thought it used SDDM themes as well before, thanks
