        Hi,

        No, but in the works is : making coffee.

        Remember : pfSense is a firewall / router and some related tricks.
        Web pages are never pushed to users, email, letters, sms's are.

        But, you could use the captive portal to force users to see a page.

        No "help me" PM's please. Use the forum, the community will thank you.
        Edit : and where are the logs ??

          The only way to do what you want is Captive Portal. And that would only be at the start of their login session, not a random time in the middle. Though I suppose you could keep CP off, then enable it to show a message to everyone. Kinda ugly though.

          Otherwise you get into things like squid and intercepting HTTP/HTTPS and doing MITM on TLS, which is a mess.
