 * I’m trying to find some type of plugin that can both display a list (songs) as
   well as have a feature to request a song be played (ideally via twitter or text
   message/email). I’ve found a few, but they either break my site or are basically
   abandoned and don’t have the exact features.
 * I’d even be open to a combination of plugins with a minor amount of code work.
   I thought maybe a simple DB plugin where I could add a link to send a message
   with the song details in the body.
 * Any help is appreciated!
 * Thanks!

 * Hello TC1122,
 * I would recommend using a plug-in such as [Contact Form 7](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/)
   to create a simple form for submitting song requests. This can generate emails
   to you and you can tie into Google’s ReCaptcha to easily limit spam.
 * For the song list, I would create a Custom Post Type for “Songs” using a plug-
   in like [Custom Post Type UI](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-post-type-ui).
   Then, to customize the fields (artist, album, etc.) I would use [Advanced Custom Fields](https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/).
   You would then need to alter the archive page template page listing the songs
   to include these new fields, but that is fairly straightforward and described
   in the Advanced Custom Fields documentation.
 * I hope this helps,
    Scott
