Mark, Thanks for the link to that page on the filters. I hadn't messed with the Advanced Search yet, but that does seem like an easier place to try out some filters. I created the tiddlers in order, so February first on though June, so I don't think it was that. Reading TW's reply, it seems like I didn't understand what fields were included, or how they were formatted.
TW, I guess in my searching I didn't see other people having similar issues. Or at least the titles seemed different enough that I didn't open the discussions. I have added your json and will see how that works. The content of my $:/config/NewJournal/title tiddler was: YYYY MM DDTH. Thankfully I'm not too far into using Tiddlywiki, so manually adding the date field for the ones I have shouldn't take too long. Thanks so much for your reply and work on that add-in.
