I guess that depeds on your session manager (sddm, lightDm,...). Which one do you use?
as always, correct me if I'm wrong ;)

The questionmark was not to symbolize, that I don't know how to add a user to a group. It was to remind the OP(original Poster :D) of this necessity as he just stated, that he had his user in the lightdm.conf, but nothing about adding himself to the autologin group.
and before anyone asks: check your group memberships with the

command ;)

How about your group membership? People, this isn't windows or ubuntu.

May also need new group nopasswdlogin  and add,

Code: [Select]
auth        sufficient  pam_succeed_if.so user ingroup nopasswdlogin

in /etc/pam.d/lightdm
