title: Simple PHP CMS as an alternative to hacking Wordpress
body: <p>For creating common user modifiable site I've been forcing Wordpress to do the work of a CMS. It's worked and the back-end is purdy but it's just too hacky for my tastes. So I'd like a simple CMS that is easy to customize and add dynamic content to.</p>
  
  <p>Right now it looks like <a href="http://modxcms.com" rel="noreferrer">modx</a> is my best bet. I've tried Joomla a while ago but it was a real pain to customize and the back-end was not intuitive.</p>
  
  <p>Basic requirements:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Free</li>
  <li>Runs under PHP5</li>
  <li>Easy to customize</li>
  <li>Easy for content authors</li>
  <li>Easy to add dynamic content</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>If it doesn't have these, then I doubt it's more fit than <a href="http://modxcms.com" rel="noreferrer">modx</a>.</p>
