Hide / Turn off individual guild text chat

Good Day - I'm not sure where this request belongs.

I would like to be able to turn off specific guild text chat on Xbox NA. I have needed to join a few bigger trader guilds to sell my wares, and man, they are chatty. I would like to shut off the chat individually, while leaving any whispers, my guild chat and group chat actively popping up like normal. With console, its all or nothing.

I have tried to "black out" the text, but I find it just as distracting. I also recently found out that this is built into PC in the base settings.

Is this something you could do for console? I did ask on ESOUI to see if there could be an add-on developed, but this really should be a base game setting.

Thanks your your consideration and if needed, redirection of this request to the proper place.

    Trying to see again if this is in the right spot. @ZOS_Kevin maybe you could assist? Thank you!

    I would like this too.

    My solution is to make any of those guild chat color a very dark green. Zone chat too. Dark green is harder to see than black in most environments in ESO. It takes a real effort to read them unless I open my chat window, and my brain learned to filter the green in the HUD chat quickly.

    In case you didn't know, there is an addon for consoles called FavOptions.
    You can save your options as "favorite", but you can just skip this feature
    if you are not interested in it. But what this addon also does is turning chat
    colors into an account-wide setting.
    Normally you would have to change colors for each guild chat on each of
    your individual characters. Having to do that only once is already a pretty
    useful feature of this addon.
    But there is more. If you select 'black' as a chat color for any channel (like
    guild1, guild2, yell, zone, group, etc) it filters out that chat completely and
    does not show it in the chat window.
