Trying to modify the Categories block

[jumbo]

Hi all

 

What I'm trying to do is modify the categories block so that it would show the categories, with 4 most recent products under each category.

The default view is categories, with sub-categories under it.

 

Can someone please help me with the code to get the 4 most recent items under each cat?

 

Here's the code from category-tree-branch.tpl: (where i have removed the code to get the sub-categories, as I'm not interested in that)

 

<li {if isset($last) && $last == 'true'}class="last"{/if}>
<a href="{$node.link}" {if isset($currentCategoryId) && ($node.id == $currentCategoryId)}class="selected"{/if} title="{$node.desc|escape:html:'UTF-8'}">{$node.name|escape:html:'UTF-8'}</a>
{if $node.children|@count > 0}
 <ul>
[GET PRODUCTS CODE GOES HERE]
 </ul>
{/if}
</li>
