I think you can change this at your back office.

1. You must know that all product in Home category will be displayed in home page.
You should only add those products to category "Home" that you want them to be displayed at home page
You can do this at back office catalog tab
2. The number of products displayed can be set at following
go Modules tab
look for Featured Products on the homepage module
click configure and set Number of product displayed and save it

Go to the Preferences > Products tab and change the "Order way" to "Descending". If that doesn't work, or you want to override the setting just for the featured products, change line 72 of modules/homefeatured/homefeatured.tpl from:

$products = $category->getProducts(intval($params['cookie']->id_lang), 1, ($nb ? $nb : 10));

to:

$products = $category->getProducts(intval($params['cookie']->id_lang), 1, ($nb ? $nb : 10), 'date_add', 'DESC');

Would Ricky's method work on 1.4.6.2? I am unable to find "$products = $category->getProducts(intval($params['cookie']->id_lang), 1, ($nb ? $nb : 10), 'date_add', 'DESC'); under line 72 of modules/homefeatured/homefeatured.tpl . Please help? My features products are showing bunch old products. I want them show newly added products. Thanks!

[shokinro]

yes, it should work.

The line # in 1.4.6.2 is 99 instead of 72. (assume you have not changed anything yet).

Found it. It's under homefeatured.php not homefeatured.tpl . I was looking at the wrong place. Thanks. I spend all days look for this code on internet.

[shokinro]

yes, you are right, I am glad you found it and solved the problem.

Hi! Rocky.

you can hardcode the featured products module or install additional modules. Home product categories PRO is one of those, you have many options to customize product list on your home page (display products by categories or display all products)

https://addons.prestashop.com/en/products-homepage/26563-home-product-categories-pro.html

 

This module also provides a "Sort by" option on the frontend, customer can sort the product lists by default product category position, product name (A-Z), new products or random order...

 

Cheer!
