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?

In the selector:

$newsposts = wire("pages")->find("parent=/news-articles/, $category, template=TUT_news, limit=3");

you should just need to add: sort=-created

eg:

$newsposts = wire("pages")->find("parent=/news-articles/, $category, template=TUT_news, limit=3, sort=-created"); 

That will sort your posts in reverse order (-) of created date/time.

Worked like a charm. Thanks a lot!
