So sorry to ask a stupid question but how does one check the browser console or errors? The last few updates have made this not function the way it is intended to do.

It depends on your browser, but usually F12 will open the console. Is this related to the occasional white screen issue or is the plugin not working at all for you? Please open a bug report and follow the issue instructions if it is not directly related to the issue you are replying to.
