Colorbox Node and template files? I have a node being pulled into a modal with overlay using Colorbox Node but it's pulling in more markup and pieces of the page than I really want. 

After trying to pick through some user threads on drupal.org, the only solutions I saw suggested were ones that only work for Drupal 6 and/or break when page caching is enabled. 

Is there a robust way to template the output of nodes in modals in Drupal 7?
Colorbox Node creates a new display mode for each content type - that's where you can change the fields shown.

Structure -> Content Types -> 'manage display' on the content typ ein question - in the top right, select the 'Colorbox' display mode and adjust what shows and doesn't show as needed.
