From your file /etc/systemd/logind.conf we see these lines:

#HandleLidSwitch=suspend
HandleLidSwitchDocked=suspend

On the first line you need to remove the #, save the file and reboot.

You removed the # from the second line which suspends the laptop when it is docked ie. plugged into a docking station or when there is a secondary HDMI monitor / TV plugged in.

The first line controls suspending when the laptop is not docked.

For others reading this answer keep in mind from the Launcher select System Settings and click the Power applet and make sure it is also be configured like this:

Power Suspend

Notice the When lid is closed section. Have the options set to Suspend. If either these Power settings or systemd’s settings above are set to ignore then suspend will not occur.

Please note the systemd change above may not fix everything. It is one thing that needs to change.
