Shop: Display last added item first (on top)

[Vincent Volmer]

Hello,

Is there a possibility to display the last added item at the top. So it is not sorted by name or description but by date?

Sure, this is possible to add
Sources/shop/Shop-Buy.php, find:

Code: [Select]

case 3:
$context['shop_inv']['sort_type'] = $txt['shop_stock'];
$sortQuery = 'stock';Add after:

Code: [Select]

case 4:
$context['shop_inv']['sort_type'] = 'Date added';
$sortQuery = 'id';
Themes/default/Shop.template.php, find:

Code: [Select]

<option value="3"', ($context['shop_inv']['sort_type'] == $txt['shop_stock'] ? ' selected="selected"' : ''), '>', $txt['shop_stock'], '</option>Add after:

Code: [Select]

<option value="4"', ($context['shop_inv']['sort_type'] == 'Date added' ? ' selected="selected"' : ''), '>Date added</option>

This will add a "date added" option to the sort box on the buy items page. If you want to call it something else, change "date added" to whatever you want to call it (it occurs three times in the above code sections)

No problem! 

Thanks for your answer. It works great 

When I go into the shop the list of items is default ordered by name. Is it also possible to change this to 'Date added' , and see the last added item on top of the list?
