Set your Entry Registration Opens date and time, then click OK to save. 2. Set your Entry Registration Closes date and time the same way. Your show's time zone is set separately under the Configuration tab, so be sure that's configured correctly as well. #### Customizing Add/Scratch Cutoffs You can customize when adds and scratches are cut off, including setting a specific closing date and time. #### Hiding the Entry List Per Class You can choose a date and time for when you'd like to hide the entry list per class from public view. #### Entry Selection: Choosing What to Display Depending on the type of competition you're running, you can **choose to display divisions and classes together, divisions only, or classes only.** A note on discipline-specific selections: some disciplines may use different types depending on the type of competition they are running. For example we have a callout that, rodeo shows use divisions only. {% hint style="info" %} Horse Spot is actively working on tailoring which information displays by default based on your discipline, so if you see a callout mentioning this, it just means we're optimizing the experience to be more personalized to your discipline over time. {% endhint %} #### Payment Settings Payment settings require an active payment gateway, such as Stripe. If you haven't set one up yet, reach out to the Horse Spot team and we can help. 1. Check whether a payment method is required for an entry sign-up. 2. Check whether a payment method is required for a stabling request. 3. Click Save Changes once you're ready to publish. For more detail on horse health document requirements and digital signatures on waivers and entry agreements, see the Horse Health Documents and Digital Signatures on Waivers & Entry Agreements guides. ### Documentation {% content-ref url="/pages/EzVndzkZopuvki6TcrST" %} [Managing Horse Health Documents](/product-docs/show-day-tools/entries/managing-horse-health-documents.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### Show Fees {% content-ref url="/pages/xV8pUyOVKmMiSTylTmtY" %} [Show Fee Setup & Customizations](/product-docs/show-settings-and-fees/show-fee-setup-and-customizations.md) {% endcontent-ref %} ### Results Display Settings If you run dressage shows, scroll down to Results, where you'll find a checkbox to hide dressage test scores and remarks from public view. By default, these are displayed publicly, check the box if you'd rather keep them hidden. Horse Spot is actively working on more discipline-specific rules and configurations here, so if a setting doesn't apply to your discipline, feel free to skip past it.
