[SOLVED]Change Thunar FIle Manager's "Set as wallpaper" default action

I want to change the default behavior of the option "Set as wallpaper" when right-clicking photos in Thunar. I am using awesome wm and whatever the default action is doing doesn't change anything.
I have already created my own Thunar custom action that sets the wallpaper, so the issue isn't setting the wallpaper, it's the annoying default button being there without any functionality.
Looking around I can't seem to find a way to easily hide it or change what it does.

Hi, in /etc/pacman.conf add this:

NoExtract    = usr/lib/thunarx-2/thunar-wallpaper-plugin.so

and reinstall thunar.
