About the Extension

The plugin automatically applies descending sorting by the product’s creation date (createdAt) in all Shopware 6 product listings. This ensures your newest products always appear first – regardless of release date or manual sorting. Perfect for stores using product imports or generating products dynamically, where creation date reflects actual product freshness. The plugin applies server-side logic and only activates when no user-selected sorting is set. Optional per Sales Channel configuration is available. Ideal for modern, fast-moving catalogs that want to showcase what's new – instantly and without effort.

What happens if the user selects a different sort option?

The plugin respects user-selected sorting – it only sets the default.

What’s the difference between creation date and release date?

Release date (releaseDate) is manually set; creation date (createdAt) is system-generated at product creation.

Does it work with imported products?

Yes – especially useful for imports where creation date reflects the actual product age.

Does this affect SEO or product URLs?

No – it only changes sort order, not content or metadata.

Can I enable this only for certain Sales Channels?

Yes – you can enable or disable the feature per Sales Channel in the plugin settings.
