Is it possible to set a custom message when a user sessions expires, or configure Splunk sessions to never expire?

When Splunk sessions expire, it brings up a black screen with
"Your session has expired. Log in to return to the system."
However, our users don't know the passwords. We use 'insecure login" URLs with embedded user/password. Still, when session timeout expires, there is an annoying black screen.
So, my questions are:
- is it possible to configure the session to never expire? Like setting some timeout to -1?
- is it possible to put a custom message, e.g. "Please reload the page" instead of the default one?
- may be a better option is to intercept the session expiration in JS and reload the page preventively?
Many thanks.

You could set a crazy-long timeout like '1y'.
