If you go into Admin>Catalog>Categories/Products you can change the sort order in the edit, so set your New Products to 1, then the others to 2, 3, 4 etc.

this only does the categories, i may have mistyped what i meant. i want the new products inside the categories to appear at the top. for example in the beds categories i want the newest bed to be at the top. there was no sort order field in the actual product, only in the category.

I am very sure you can sort the columns by products_date_added (in the products table). You will have to change the 'order by' call in index.php but its fairly simple :-)

in the index.php file, search for 'order by' and you will find the value there to replace with date_added. I am pretty sure this will work, but I havent tested it.
