I tried to use the auto button and that set the path to /usr/bin, not /usr/local/bin (where the ports are installed.)
When I tried to type in the correct path it said it could not find it, and when I pushed the set button it brought up the gui and I could not set /usr/local/bin.
What am I missing about being able to set plugins to use my Macports installs?

It has to point to the actual Python interpreter
binary file, not merely the directory it's in. When you use the "Set" button, select the Python 3.6 binary.
Though unless you're going to be doing some developing of your own with non-standard (Sigil plugin non-standard) Python modules, I'm not certain why one wouldn't just use the Sigil's bundled Python. It has everything you need to run the vast majority of plugins out there. Otherwise, you'll have to make sure your Macports Python has all the recommended Sigil plugin-related modules installed.
