1) how can a user see all their Notification history. So if they miss out something then they can check the history.

2) Web Push Notification sent the message to the browser and show the notification from the browser.
Is there anyway to sent the message to the website itself and not on the browser.
All the message sent my the admin will be shown under the BELL ICON on the Upper Right corner.
and If the user want to see the message then they can click on the BELL ICON and the message list will be showing there.

There is no such feature in the Notification API. You may also google "browser notifications history" for more information.

For such case #2, then you should not use Web Push Notification.

Since you want system to send the message to all users (assume only for the logged-in users), then you need one or some additional tables to store all those messages, including the sender and the recipient.

Each time a user send the message to another user, then you need to handle from the web application to display the notification to the destination user when the recipient has already been logged in, or when the recipient has just been reloaded any page.

If necessary, you may add a field to distinguish whether a message has been read or not. For example, you need to add update functionality to flag a message has been read or not.
