Hi all - very experienced developer across lots of different platforms...but very used to doing things from scratch. So far, just a touch bewildered by a couple things in Drupal - but I am confident that I am dealing with a nasty case of user-error.

My Question: What does a dev have to do to remove the default title of a "Basic Page"?
In my case, anytime I make a basic page, I am prompted for :

a) A Title
b) A Content Body

BUT - it seems Drupal insists on giving the page another title - specifically "Main Page Content", and it shows this text above the title I am prompted for. This is not desirable b/c that is not the title of my page...in this case the title of page is "Welcome to JustAWater!"

You can see here: http://www.justawater.com
What do I need to do to remove the default title of the page? ("Main Page Content")

I am sure this is something simple that I am overlooking, but at this point I am about to go blind. hehe.

It is taking all I can to resist the urge to jump into the php includes to brute force my will on this thing, but hoping one of you has a suggestion that might prevent such abuse. 8)

Any help is appreciated!

This is of course for a Basic Page that is promoted to front page (not sure if it matters, I see the default title for pages regardless of home or not)

Two thoughts

a) What happens if you switch to the bartik theme, does "Main Page Content" still show? (it is not a default feature)

b) It looks like are using the default front page and really just want that single node, in that case you can change the default front page at Administration » Configuration » (System) Site information under "Default front page"

Sorry for not clarifying:

I am in fact on Bartik 7.8 - switching to Zen and 7 both yield the same results.

Also, I did go into Site Information - and modded default front page, with an effect, but not a solution.
Will keep digging.

Admin -> Structure -> Blocks

Click on "Main Page Content"

Look for "Block title" -- if it's not blank, make it blank.
