Should I move my PHP site into a CMS like Wordpress? -

i have coded site proud of in php. working fine. told site needs built around cakephp.

i new building dynamic websites not sure if he's correct or not. right now, if want see data, go phpmyadmin. if want operate on code, open php files.

is there better way don't know about? not sure why should re-code site in cakephp. should i? please explain.

also, cakephp come design templates wordpress?

there's more 1 way skin cat.

there nothing wrong in sticking plain php if comfortable maintaining contents in phpmyadmin. can make site dynamic using parameters (example.com/article?id=123) or using routing framework allow nice url's such (example.com/article/hello-world.html).

personally, prefer sticking plain php personal website projects, instead of becoming dependent on framework or cms.

no matter if choose stick plain php, framework or cms, still need figure ways to:

• route user request ever resources page should show user.
• security ("never trust user-submitted data") - frameworks security right, , again - can sanitize user requests in plain php.
• database queries shall made (select * articles id = 123), , sql injection shall prevented.
• etc.
