Change standard default of sorting on product page to newest first

Technical Q&A
1

Hey,

I am using the latest Dawn theme for my online shop. On the product page its currently set to auto sort alphabetically A-Z however i’d like to show the latest products first. I have been looking at the the facets.liquid file and it seems it should be able there somewhere. There are mentions of default_sort_by there. This part to be precise:

{%- if enable_sorting -%}
          
            

              ## 
                
              
              
                {%- assign sort_by = results.sort_by | default: results.default_sort_by -%}
                
                {% render 'icon-caret' %}

However i cant seem to find the correct code and place and im now sure if this really is the right place ;). Anyone that could help?

Regards,

Sjiz

I have the very same question. It seems a bit cumbersome to have to alter it to newest first after every save and change made.
I’m very curious if this is possible. Hopefully bumping up this topic :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
