In the “Read Me First” post that came with the forum, it states that user can send invites from “The Invite Area on your profile page”. However I don’t see any invite button on my profile page, and I’m on TL4. I do see invite button in a topic. Has the feature for inviting from profile page been deprecated?

Hm, looks like SSO enabled suppresses the invite button on profile page…

I think the idea is that if you are using SSO all user management is via the external system you use to feed your SSO app.

Invites would bypass external SSO, so that’s not allowed. With SSO, the parent site is in charge of user accounts, not Discourse.
