Great job Sharan, and thank you for pulling this through and not giving up :)
My recommendations to make this website an easier, more managable task is as follows: - Replace PHP templates with freemarker. I remember creating them quickly just to get something rolling for the header/footer/shared regions - Introduce a build script .. naturally I would recommend gradle. The build script would include a few tasks to automate the publication of the website. For example: - generateHtml: from the freemarker templates - publishWebsite: to get the final thing on the web server - clean: to remove any generated artifacts I think treating this as a project with a build script using tools everyone is familiar with is going to help in code contributions.
