When trying to use Chronoforms, many errors appears on error_log, like:

PHP Warning:  parse_ini_file() has been disabled for security reasons in /administrator/components/com_chronoforms6/chronoforms/themes/default/views/connections/edit.php on line 181, referer: /administrator/index.php?option=com_chronoforms6&cont=connections
PHP Notice:  Array to string conversion in /administrator/components/com_chronoforms6/chronoforms/themes/default/views/connections/edit.php on line 189, referer: /administrator/index.php?option=com_chronoforms6&cont=connections

I attached a screenshot with some visible errors.

Running Joomla 3.7.2 and PHP 5.6.

Hi flashfs,

Please enable the parse_ini_file function on the server.

I understand that, but maybe you guys should approach it some other way. Joomla itself apparently try not to use that function if it is disabled. See: https://github.com/joomla/joomla-cms/pull/15620

Hi flashfs,

There is no need to provide an alternative if a core PHP function should work ok:
