Is there a CMS that can manage content on a site without having to implement a template?
I’ve already designed a site with XHTML and CSS, so don’t need a template, but do need active content management in static places, such as articles on the homepage and on a couple of other pages.
Preferably open-source all the way, and tableless layout.
I’ve seen WordPress’s backend used as a CMS without a front end template. They used WordPress to write, organize, and otherwise manage content, but used their existing site plus a few database queries to pull in the content from WP.
It may be easier to just create a basic WordPress template from your existing site’s design. It takes about 10 minutes when you’ve done it a lot, or a few hours for a newbie.
