With the new version of biblatex
(probably implemented in version 2.6, cf. https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/126261/9077), ONLINE
entries are now printed with full dates, with that information taken from the URLDATE
field. I would like to suppress that (so that it appears like it did in version 2.5).
I can add \clearfield{labelmonth}
and \clearfield{labelday}
to my preamble to suppress the month and the day, but I can't add \clearfield{labelyear}
, since that will remove the year from all other entries in the bibliography as well.
What can I add to my preamble to suppress printing the year in ONLINE
entries only?

I managed to read \cite{lennon1972} with the help of \cite{googletranslate}.
