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.
I used to at least get festival invites (spice, romance festival, etc) but since the bigger patch last month those have stopped too.
I know this thread doesn't have a lot of people Me Too-ing it or chiming in, but I found a reddit thread of a fair amount of people having this problem : Link
It mentions a mod that I'm going to try out later today (when it's not 03:45 in the morning lol), I'm really hoping it'll fix things cause I really would like to experience these features, it makes me a bit sad how dead my sims' relationships feel with others outside the household.
And because I forgot to add this last time I posted:

Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? 100% of the time.
What is your current game version number? 1.109.207.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I think you would need a save from someone having this problem as it doesn't seem to affect everyone; but that said, just play for a while and notice there's no invites, events, stay overs, cupid's corner calls (wealthy weirdo, 7 perfect dates), playdates, restaurant invites, festival invites, etc. Researching genealogy on the computer doesn't generate any family members for stay overs either.
What happens when the bug occurs? There's no invites to random events from sims outside the active household.
What do you expect to see? Invites, events, stay overs, cupid's corner calls (wealthy weirdo, 7 perfect dates), playdates, restaurant invites, festival invites, etc. For researching genealogy on the computer to generate family member and have them stay over.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes, but I have also removed all of them and cleared cache, and the issue persists regardless of whether there's mods or not, on both old and new saves. I've also uninstalled and reinstalled the game, to no effect.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? It's been a problem the whole time I've played - I've had Growing Together since it came out but I've literally never gotten a stay over request.hello! i can't believe this is still an issue for A LOT of players across different platforms. I'm still incredibly busy with uni and thesis project (!!!) but before September i was using this small mod and add-on by Kuttoe and it worked fine (not all invites were happening, but at least some plus another texts that improve relationships), keep in mind that the devs seemed to fix the issue with the Lovestruck patches so i can't entirely be sure that it was fixed or it was the mod.
many thanks to @pawcifist for linking this post on Reddit (direct link to the mod's MTS page) so maybe anyone else can try this and check back in here. In my case, i'll have to wait until mid-November to begin testing with and without mods and also see what EA/Maxis breaks or fixes with the upcoming DLC and updates lol
