How to edit Thunar 'Set as wallpaper' option ?

I was trying to add a custom action, when I noticed that there already is an option 'Set as wallpaper' after right click on an image file. But it doesn't work and it's not listed in custom actions. Anyone knows where it comes from, how to edit/change/remove it ?

I think it's tied somehow to XFCE.  I just make a custom action using feh to do the job.

Thanks jfb3.

I know how to create a custom action. Thew problem is, when I create a new one, I have 2 'Set as wallpaper' options atfer right click on image. I'd rather only have 1 smile

Me too, but I think to get rid of the original choice you have to recompile with an option something like  "--disable-wallpaper-plugin".

Ha ! Didn't realise it was a plugin. I don't remember seeing it previously... Adding precisely the option to pkgbuild fixed it.

It looks like the plugin is using xfconf-query, but I'm missing the xfce4-desktop channel as I don't have xfce installed (presumably). I'm happy using nitrogen though.

Thx jfb3 !
