Greeter Glitch in Zorin 8

I love Zorin 8 and I want to move all my boxes over to it. However, I am having a small problem in one area. I've been using Zorin 7.1 and with it I hid the user list and made the welcome screen such that you could manually enter the username and password and disallow guests. I did it by modifying the file /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf file with the following lines:
greeter-show-manual-login=true
greeter-hide-users=true
allow-guest=false
The modification doesn't work in Zorin 8 like it did in 7.1. Has anyone had any success in getting greeter modifications to work in Zorin 8?

Hi cpiroot, and Welcome to Zorin! :D Something I haven't tried to do - I notice a lot of things are tighter and more restrictive in the latest release (you cannot edit your menus unless you have the Yet Another Menu Applet) running in the Panel! :(
