[TYPO3-commerce] how to change sorting of articles in list view

[toni milovan]

Hi Morten,

Thanks for replying to my question. However no matter how hard I try I 
cannot seem to find the "articleOrder" hook you mentioned below. I have 
the latest commerce version from svn meaning 0.11.10 and mentioned hook 
ain't there (postinit is).

Regarding the question why should I need such functionality, well my 
client just wants it that way. He is creating many articles by just 
copying template product, and after copying sorting field are empty so 
he has to click to the sorter to fill the sorting fields for articles 
while he just wants the to be sorted by the order they were created.

Thanks,

Toni
