Assuming I setup a [staging.mydomainname.com](http://staging.mydomainname.com) domain and then publish the CMS to it. If I then license the CMS for ‘[staging.mydomainname.com](http://staging.mydomainname.com)’ (which is what I get offered in the CMS Studio setup), will that then also cover a license for ‘[mydomainname.com](http://mydomainname.com)’ for when I migrate the update across from Staging to production?

Yup, that should all work just fine 👍
