I am totally confused with this topic. Ignore me if I am wrong.

Anyway just now I tested invite functionality in my localhost and it is working fine with below criteria.

1. Enabled the `invite only` SiteSetting
2. Enabled the `login required` SiteSetting
3. Created a new member using console
4. Promoted the new user to TL2

Now I am able to send invitation as that new user. Even it is working while both or either one SiteSetting disabled. I can’t understand why it is not working for you. Do you have SSO enabled?

Currently only TL2 users can send invites. So no harm when we welcome friend-of-a-TL2-friend-of-a-TL2-friend-of-a-TL2-friend 🙂
