Broadcast messages

Is it possible to broadcast a message to many users?

@athedoor A simple way to do this would be to use a HTML widget placed at the top of the screen (global).

Go to Admin Control Panel... and then Extend > Widgets...

Drag the HTML widgets from the right side to the left... and then fill them however you want.

Use "Global Header" or "Global Footer" sections for all users on any page to be able to see...

actually, you are not "sending" a message to the users directly, you are just showing it to all the users visiting your forum.

@crazycells I would like send via chat the same private messagge to many user.
I have seen than I can create a room with more users but in this case it isn't a broadcast message (one-many) but a chat group (many-many)
Is there a solution to implement a one-many mode?

Unfortunately, this is not possible. Nodebb is in trouble with the chat functionality. Everything is at the initial level there

You can install the global chat plugin...
