Since the website has changed its advanced search options, I'm unable to search by year...does anyone know how to do that?

Thanks, but it doesn't work...if I enter only the dates it fails to provide any listings, if I enter other criteria it ignores the dates... :-(

It does work for me. For instance, I enter 2017 to 2017 and click Search at the bottom and I get a list of all titles from 2017.

Only if you make other selections...you can't get a full list of all movies released in that year, regardless of genre, language etc. (or at least, I have not been able to - if you know how to - I'll be very grateful for the advice).

Are you using an app or a browser to access the search? If an app, which one?
If a browser, please provide a sample url of a non-working search.
Here's one that works for me (I entered only 2012, it filled in the month and day):

Thx, but your link demonstrates my exact problem - It's shows only musicals - I don't want any sorting by Genre. I want simply a full list of all the films released in a certain period. If you can advise how to do that (it used to be very simple before all the 'improvements' in IMDB) I would greatly appreciate it...thx :-)

Orly,
My example gives only musicals because that's what I asked for. If you eliminate that, then you get all the feature films. When I eliminate the genre specification, I get 8,400+ titles.
https://www.imdb.com/search/title?title_type=feature&release_date=2012
If I eliminate the feature film constraint, I get over 233k titles.
You did not answer my questions:
Or maybe just tell us what you want to do, and we can direct you how to do it.
