Hi, and welcome to the forum.

 

You will need  1) ftp access and 2) a code editor of some sort

 

We are going to work with this file:

moudles/blocknewproducts/blocknewproducts.php

 

The following is 'untested'.

 

1) make a back up moudles/blocknewproducts/blocknewproducts.php  (download/rename to something like blocknewproducts_bkup.php)

2) find this function protected function getNewProducts()

3) replace entire function with:  (note in this example I use 10 for category)

protected function getNewProducts()
{
	if (!Configuration::get('NEW_PRODUCTS_NBR'))
		return;
	$newProducts = false;
	if (Configuration::get('PS_NB_DAYS_NEW_PRODUCT'))
		if (isset($this->context->controller->php_self) && $this->context->controller->php_self == 'category')	
			$newProducts = Product::getNewProducts((int) $this->context->language->id, 0, 10);
		else
			$newProducts = Product::getNewProducts((int) $this->context->language->id, 0, (int)Configuration::get('NEW_PRODUCTS_NBR'));

	if (!$newProducts && Configuration::get('PS_BLOCK_NEWPRODUCTS_DISPLAY'))
		return;
	return $newProducts;
}

Note: back office-->advanced parms-->clear cache (top right of screen)...
