Default site settings for all Sites assign new records created by Salesforce Sites guest users to a default owner in the org. This setting increases site security by ensuring guest users no longer automatically own the records they create - ownership passes to a nominated user within your organization.
To nominate a default record owner:
-
Open the Site Edit page:
- In Salesforce Lightning Experience go to Setup > User Interface > SItes and Domains > Sites
- In Salesforce Classic go to Setup > App Setup > Develop > Sites
Select the Edit Action for the Site.
- For the Default Record Owner field select User Lookup
. - Find and select the User you want to act as the record owner for the Site.
- Select Save.
