   I will be hosting wordpress.
   I have 3 live servers (Load balanced) and a Dev server.

   There will be no uploads or anything, and all posts are database driven.. so this should be fine.

   The client I am hosting for will make use of the WP-Admin portal to modify their Theme directly.

   I want WP-Admin to be used from dev.
   NO WP-admin on the 3 live servers.
   When the client modifies and tests the theme code, I will have those changes pushed out to the live servers. I can handle this.. no problem.

   Where I have the issue is with the hard coded URLS (Site url and wordpress url) When they are on Dev.. I need them to test everything using the url http://dev.mysite.com, but on live it should be http://www.mysite.com. (And even further, I'd like to test individual servers with ww1.mysite.com, ww2.mysite.com, ww3.mysite.com)

   When I set the Site and WordPress urls, all links go to those hardcoded urls making dev and individual servers impossible. I want the paths to be relative, but the url fields will not accept single slashes to indicate "the url I'm on" rather than a set static url.
   Do I need to setup Multisite?

   Provided you use all the built in functions like bloginfo('siteurl') you should be alright?

   unfortunatley that doesnt really help.

   I'm not trying to get the variables...

   The wordpress config makes you speciafy a URL for the site and wordpress (Usually the same) I need this to be dynamic, yet wordpress insists on a static url.

   It wont let me put a variable in the field.
