So this apparently was fixed after the 1.101.290 patch but around two weeks after, the invites disappeared again. I thought it was because I was playing with an older save so I created a new one and received the Vlad Straud welcome call and a break-in and a random stay over from a townie, but after a few sim days never got anything else. Made another save and this time I didn't get any invite or random call.

I've tried with and without mods or CC and the results are the same, the only invite I get is to attend any of the San Myshuno festivals, the rest are gone.

Hopefully they can fix this permanently because it's a great way to get my sims out of the house, visit venues and make friends

I got two restaurant invitations yesterday, my game is up to date, are you sure is not a mod problem?
Or did you get the restaurant too but not the rest?

@Dre_3403 How long did you play without mods ?

Sneak outs are still broken, they have a thread here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-HSY-Never-invited-to-parties-No-Sneak-outs/m-p/11687605#M224184

Did playing without mods fix this for you, @Dre_3403 ? I'm still having this issue as of the most current patch.

Hi! I've not been able play recently because of university, but maybe I can try this weekend with and without mods so I can give a better answer. So far it seemed like they fixed it with some of the Lovestruck patches and the toggle on/off option in pack settings

@Dre_3403thank you! :D i ended up trying without mods myself, but it didn't seem to have any effect on my old save at least; what *did* have an effect, oddly enough, was deleting localthumbnailcache in documents folder. when i did that phone call invites would work for a few sim days before stopping again! both with and without mods.

but it was only the invites for parties and such, i've still yet to get any stayover requests at all and i've had Growing Together since it came out. things like the "7 dates" thing and "wealthy weirdo" from Lovestruck, i've also never gotten - i've seen several people online say that it only works in new saves, which is honestly a bummer.
