/invite /inv (Name)

[Stormfur]

If I want to invite someone to my party, I'd really like to be able to type something like this to do it. I'm surprised I can't already!

I haven't tried it as a text command, but supposedly it should work, according to
http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest.../text_command/

/invite
USAGE:
　/invite "PC name"

→Invites the specified PC to your party. Invites current target when no name is specified.

I saw that, which made me think it was a thing, but I've never been able to do it successfully (I'm on ps4 if that helps).

Are you sure you remembered to put the player name to quotation marks? The macro/text command interface doesn't usually like multiple word parameters where one parameter is needed, even if it's obvious it's be many words anyway. Quotation marks fix that making it a single word, technically speaking.

Have you tried
/pcmd add "PC name"
?
It used to be the party command to invite someone in FFXI and I think at least in FFXIV 1.x. I am quite positive, it is still the valid way in ARR/HW but I cannot verify right now.

oh so it's more like /inv "Stormfur Greymane" ?

/pcmd add "name

This command does still work.

Yep all the old party command lines still work.
I use them all the time.

A macro to invite my static to a party works wonders.
