How do I add a guest account to Linux Mint 13?

In latest ubuntu which ships lightdm, that supports a guest account,

So install lightdm and replace gdm should work for you, which would do the exactly same thing in Ubuntu 12.04:

apt-get install lightdm

    Is there a way to add a guest login account on welcome screen of Linux Mint 13 MATE-32bits, similar to the one present in Ubuntu 12.04?

      My version of Ubunut doesn't have a guest account. You should be able to simply add a guest user and then set no password.

    Thank you. The reason I accepted this answer is because this allows the creation of a temporary profile, which is deleted when session is closed and and refreshed when restarted. Simply creating a new account does not make it temporary, as it happens in Ubuntu 12.04 guest account.
