Yes its compatible with LAMP and LASP. We have a installation option in dietpi-software for wordpress that will install and configure it for you: (resolved) Cannot log in to the MySQL server

You will need to point your domain name to your internet IP address. You can check your internet IP address with:

Your IP address is most likely dynamic. This means it will always change at some point in the future (could be days or weeks at atime).
If you want to always point your domain name to your IP address, you should take a look at NoIp Plus Managed DNS: No-IP: Use Remote Access and DDNS to Easily Connect to Your Internet Connected Devices From Anywhere, Anytime

You can setup the NoIp client on your device by running dietpi-config, networking options and selecting NoIp from the menu. This will install NoIp and ask you to input your NoIp details. Once completed, your device will automatically update your internet IP address to the domain name your using.
