How to make a one-time notification for users in Laravel

HI friends,

I need to show an "Update" message in all my subscribers dashboard. This is some kind of an announcement that I need everyone to see when they login to their accounts.

However, I want to hide this for users who have seen it. I mean I want to show it once and that's it. Once the user reads it, they don't see it again in the future.

Can you help please? or direct me to the right direction where I can learn how to do this?

Many thanks,

You could implement as database notifications and create a record for every user when you post a new notice. This way you can track the read/unread state for each user.
