Some sites need the ability to broadcast an announcement to all of their users. django-announcements was created precisely for this reason. How you present the announcement is up to you as the site developer. When working with announcements that are presented on the website one feature is that they are only viewed once. A session variable will hold which announcements a user has viewed and exclude that from their display. Announcements supports two different types of filtering of announcements:

site-wide (this can be presented to anonymous users)

members only (announcements are filtered based on the value of

    request.user)
