List of CMS with their own templating syntax (help me to fill it up)
As of today I know 3 CMS ( one of them exists only in SaaS form ) that do not require any knowledge of PHP for more than basic operations. You can actually have a complete full-featured website made with them, not just style them.
These CMS are:
- ExpressionEngine – almost bought freelance license for myself for $99, but the very next day they’ve rolled out new site design and new shop with no freelance license left – only $300 package. Not cool.
- Textpattern – just started learning this brilliant piece of software. Migrating my site’s new design on it this month.
- uCoz (SaaS site builder) – migrating from them. It looks and feels almost like Textpattern but on 90’s principles – tables (much less now but still bad), inline styles, snippets that predefined to be non-validating. Plus zero interest in semantics and people with disabilities. And content management is way less flexible.
If any of you could help me fill this list a bit it would be very nice.

MovableType uses Template Tags not based on PHP (MT is written in PERL so that would be odd.)

Almost every competitive system has its own template engine implemented to some degree. Textpattern isn’t alone on that regard. You can find XSLT being used in some or popular things such as Twig or Smarty.

I’ve meant CMSes that allow you to use only their own tags and PHP (not required). I’m not sure you can run site on PyroCMS without even little PHP coding and Codeigniter understanding.
I remember EE Freelancer was almost as powerful as Commercial one isn’t it?
