You can customize the file:
/includes/index_filters/default_filter.php
and add the code in RED:
Code:
// sort by products_sort_order when PRODUCT_LISTING_DEFAULT_SORT_ORDER is left blank
// for reverse, descending order use:
// $listing_sql .= " order by p.products_sort_order desc, pd.products_name";
// $listing_sql .= " order by p.products_sort_order, pd.products_name";
$listing_sql .= " order by p.products_date_added DESC, p.products_sort_order, pd.products_name";
break;
Then set the Sort Order in the Configuration ... Product Listing ... to blank for:
Display Product Listing Default Sort Order
Product Listing Default sort order?
NOTE: Leave Blank for Product Sort Order. Sort the Product Listing in the order you wish for the default display to start in to get the sort order setting. Example: 2a
And now your Categories Product Listings will default to be based on the Date Added, Sort Order, Product Name ...
