Invites is a TL2 kind of thing:

> **[Understanding Discourse Trust Levels](https://blog.discourse.org/2018/06/understanding-discourse-trust-levels/)**
>
> The user trust system is a fundamental cornerstone of Discourse. Trust levels are a way of… Sandboxing new users in your community so that they cannot accidentally hurt themselves, or other users while they are learning what to do. Granting...

As a basic user you don't have access to the feature.

@warkolm could bypass this in your case by bumping up your trust level in the admin console.

Our setting is TL1 though, which has me confused.

That is `default invitee trust level`, there is no "min\_trust\_level\_to\_invite\_users` setting, though I think it could be an interesting toggle to add.

Would this `min_trust_level_to_invite_users` be possible to add?
