Hi James, thanks for the heads-up!

If you enable authentication (Settings > Users), the message will go away and shouldn't reappear. Authentication is a very good idea regardless, so that's the best way to resolve the problem.

More than one tab is certainly (intended to be) supported by the Individual option though; I'm not sure what might cause this behavior for you so we'll take a look :-)

It looks like it is possible to trip the usage check with 3 tabs. The solution here is to enable authentication (which is available in the individual license) which disables the tab limit.
