I know you can create custom time ranges but not sure about removing them. I'll look deeper in a bit

times.conf

The default is in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/default/times.conf. You will want to copy that to $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/times.conf and make your changes there. If your question has been satisfactorily answered, please accept the answer.

To disable all of the defaults (you'd have to provide your own full list), use

[default]
disabled = True

To just disable a single one of the defaults, replace its disabled flag in your own copy of times.conf by creating a matching stanza, then setting disabled = true:

[last_30_days]
disabled = True

Your own times.conf should go in the local/ subfolder of your custom app.

Well, from the documentation, for 30 minutes you'd have a stanza such as:

[last_30_minutes]
label = Last 30 minutes
header_label = in the last 30 minutes
earliest_time = -30m

You would change this stanza to match what times you want. Please see the times.conf documentation for more information. I don't see a way to remove them.
