Hi JC5 nice to see there are more of us lol. I actually tried finding out a good PLC community a while back and yes you are absolutely correct there are no communities, other than plctalk. The only sorta community I found was theautomationblog.com/share-your-k... but when I saw I couldn't share my article somewhere else I stop pursuing that site, also it looks cumbersome each article you have to go through a submission and approvals.

What I would recommend doing if you really want to have your own blog is to host a jekyll blog on github or if you just want to have it at your own hosting site. github.com/barryclark/jekyll-now in fact that's how I publish content here on dev, I publish at kodaman2.github.io/blog/ and sync here with a rss feed. Take a look here if you would like to do something like it dev.to/kodaman2/how-to-setup-a-jek... just disregard the rss feed part.

I might do another blog just for automation content, there so much I could share in regards with Siemens and AB just stting in my head lol.

Nice to see pi's and arduinos at work in an industrial environment!
