Are there any modular, lightweight content management systems for websites that start as static HTML?
To be more specific, there are a number of clients who would like to edit content on very specific areas of the website (i.e. the hours, the special events, etc..) but those are the only things on the website they would ever want to change themselves. Typically the company I work for has used WordPress, but lately I've been noticing it being unnecessarily bulky for the functionality we are actually using.
Ideally it would be something as basic as a login portal that redirects to the homepage after you log in, then the editable area would append an (edit) link which would pop a plain text editor up.
I've seen of couchCMS and cushyCMS but haven't heard anything about them, I've also looked into trying to build a simple CMS but I still have more to learn in PHP and MySQL before I'm comfortable.
P.S. I've read the "what questions to ask" section for a while before I decided to post this here, I know it's not very specific of a coding question but if you know of a better exchange site to ask this, I'll promptly delete and repost there.
