 > I reinstalled 'py311-pyqt5 +webkit' but when I open QGIS the
 'DataPlotly' plugin error remains:

 You probably need to update the "port tree" locally with {{{sudo port
 selfupdate}}} and only then (re-)install {{{py311-pyqt5 +webkit}}}.



 > It is very difficult to align the Python modules of QGIS plugins with
 the modules installed by MacPorts. For example, another plugin does not
 load because it needs NumPy version 1.24 or lower while MacPorts has 1.25.
 As for QtWebKit which is obsolete for Qt but still present in the QGIS
 code and also used by other plugins.

 Well, this is both the strength and (sometimes) limitation of MP, it
 generally offers the latest stable version of a given piece of software.
 If a problem occurs with an update of a port, say QGIS itself, it may be
 patched by MP and the issue is usually reported upstreams. The plugins,
 however, is a quite different issue, it is virtually impossible to monitor
 and track them. The "webkit" problem (besides from not being installed by
 default) stemmed from a MP bug, which is now fixed. Issues like the
 incompatible numpy version you mentioned, must be reported upstreams
 (there is probably a trivial fix for that, the authors have likely not
 bumped into this yet as they apparently don't use MP :).
