Is there any way to reset a node's properties?

Question

I would like to know if there is a way to reset a node's properties/fields?For example node's body, title,attachments, so as to re write the contents of the page.

Answer 1

In your theme folder you can override the default output using custom template files.
Let's say you want to modify the output of a standard 'Page' (the machine name for this content type is 'page' -- you can check it in /?q=admin/structure/types).
Go to your theme folder (under /sites/all/themes) and add/modify 'node--page.tpl.php' file.
A standard node template file will have something like:

<?php print render($title_prefix); ?>
<?php if (!$page): ?>
<h2<?php print $title_attributes; ?>>
  <a href="<?php print $node_url; ?>"><?php print $title; ?></a>
</h2>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php print render($title_suffix); ?>

This piece of code is used to show the title of the current content. You can delete (or comment) the entire code and your title won't appear when you display this page.
To hide the entire content (including custom fields attached to this content type) simply comment (or delete) this line:

print render($content);

After that, you can add your custom code to display anything in place of the original title (or content) for this page.
