How to make a private message sytem between users?

I want to add a private message system to my website. Something like airbnb, when user want to ask something to another user, they can open a chat. How do I do that?

You can use the new Chatbox feature. See the Corvid Chat example to see how it’s done.

Thank you, but does this allow Communication between two users? (not a support live chat but like direct message between visitors)

@joemotoki1056 Yes. Set the Members option in the setup.

@yisrael-wix Is there a way that a member can block another member from messaging them? This would be very useful because it gives the member more control over the messages they can receive or else someone could send 100 messages in a row to someone spamming them. I really need to figure this out. Are there any other add ons that I could pay for that have direct messaging between members with Wix? I also want to remove the ability of users to be able to send attachments to one another, there is way too much room for error with that. I may need to move to another host if I can’t figure out the direct messaging better. I like Wix, but I would need more ability as an Admin to have control over the chat and allow people to not be able to recieve 50 messages in a row from someone or any unwanted photos. Thanks

Did you get a solution to this?

Solution to what? As I mentioned above, you can use the Chatbox . See the Velo Chat example .

As to how to have one member block another through chat

There are no plans for this feature at the moment.
