Does something like this exist?

Is there anything like wordpress but for direct html and php editing? I find it really hard to update the site if I upload html directly so I want to be able to have something on the website I can log in to and edit it like wordpress but I want to use html and php. I do not want to make a wordpress theme because that's not very easy to update. Does this exist?

I don't get what you want (but maybe that's just me). A CMS is here to make day-to-day changes to the content of your website easy and seamless, but changes to the structure of the CMS (PHP code) are too complicated to be handled manually. On the other hand, coding a website from scratch without CMS offers you direct manipulation of the PHP code at the cost of you having to build functions to handle your content properly. Either way, HTML/CSS are just formatting (so, theme). 

 

Maybe you need a CMS with a lot more customization options (Drupal), or a complete PHP framework (there are many, but I'd recommend CakePHP unless you have very heavy needs, then Symfony).

 

It would be easier if you told us why you want to edit Wordpress's PHP, so I can understand your use case better.

No, I want something like wordpress but for coding the site. It's mainly because I'm not always at my computer so I need to be able to do it from my phone sometimes no matter how painful.

Would something like a code editor in the cloud be the right match? Something like CodeAnywhere. Not limited to Wordpress but you could find something to set up aside it to edit Wordpress files.

Yeah, something like that. I don't want to edit wordpress though. I was looking for something like that but for code editing.

I asked a friend on Skype, he uses http://codiad.com/ (that you can host on your own website) to edit web projects but also everything code related, because he can't always use his own computer. Check out the live demo.

 

https://icecoder.net/ basically does the same thing.
