Hello,
I've been asked by a friends to code a website. They want alot of control over the design that isn't possible in CMS frameworks like wordpress.
What are the best options available for allowing none programmers to add content and edit hand coded sites.
I've had a look at simple cms http://www.simplecms.com/ which allows clients to edit WYSIWYG style the content on the site, but not add new blocks of content.
If anyone has any advice or recommendations i would be very grateful.
Thanks alot
James
