Yeah, see the title. It seems like I just can send invites from threads and the invitation function from my profile itself doesnt sent any email even tough I am able to enter an email and click on the button and I get the message, that he email was sent. I was also looking in the administration panel and the emails from the invites on the thread are listed and the others not.

**Funny thing:** I invited [me@example.org](mailto:me@example.org) on my profile. Didnt get an email. I invited [me@example.org](mailto:me@example.org) on a thread he got an email. I resent the email on the profile to [me@example.org](mailto:me@example.org) and he got a second invite.

Yeah. Does this function work here or do you all use (if so) the invitions on the thread? Maybe its a bug?!

Thanks!

**Edit:** Here the error:

It is an error in the translation, as the error message states. Either the translation should be fixed, or switch to English.

This is already fixed in Transifex and is a duplicate of
