Getting Most Recent Pages

[Adohgg]

function newsList(){
 
	// Grab the page name from the url
 
	$thisCategory = wire("page")->name;
 
	// If the category is not called "news" then output the category name as a selector for the find.
 
	if($thisCategory !="news") {
		$category = "article_category.name=" . $thisCategory;
	}	
 
	// Get the news posts - limited to ten for later pagination
 
	$newsposts = wire("pages")->find("parent=/news-articles/, $category, template=TUT_news, limit=3");
 
	$out =" ";
 
	//Loop through the pages
 
	foreach($newsposts as $newspost){
		$out .="<div class='clearfix'>";
		if($newspost->article_thumbnails){
			$out .="<a href='{$newspost->article_thumbnails->url}' class=''>";
			$out .="<img class='align_left' src='{$newspost->article_thumbnails->getThumb(listingthumb)}'>";
			$out .="</a>";
		}
		$out .="<a href='{$newspost->url}'><h3>{$newspost->title}</h3></a>";
		$out .="<p>{$newspost->article_introtext}</p>";
		$out .="</div>";
 
	}

	echo $out;
 
}

I'm trying to use this code to get the most recent pages created and display them. I found this code on the wiki, but how would I make it display the most recent ones instead of the oldest ones?

Greetings,

If I am reading your needs correctly, you add this to your "find" statement:

sort=-date

Thanks,

Matthew
