You can use filter query and form the date as follows when a user enters just the year or year and month: If just the year (1885) was entered -> date:[1885-01-01T00:00:00Z TO 1886-01-01T00:00:00Z] If just the year and month (1885-06) were entered -> date:[1885-06-01T00:00:00Z TO 1885-07-01T00:00:00Z] Alternatively use DateRangeField as described at the bottom in the following webpage: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Working+with+Dates :Sagar -----Original Message----- From: Scott Derrick [mailto:sc...@tnstaafl.net] Sent: Tuesday, August 11, 2015 3:02 PM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Using the date field for searching If I query date:1885 I get an error org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Invalid Date String:'1885' If I query date:1885* I get no results. and yet there are numerous docs with a year of 1885 in the date string, like so <arr name="date"><date>1885-02-08T00:00:00Z</date></arr> if I query date:1885-02-08T00:00:00Z I get 9 results?? Do the users really have to specify a full xml compliant date string to use the date: field for searching? thanks, Scott
