Question about displaying exhibits in a theme

Omeka Classic Themes
1

I’m using the following function to display exhibits on the homepage of my site. I’m expect to see the three most recent exhibits. Instead I’m seeing the three oldest exhibits.

$exhibits = get_records('Exhibit', array('recent' => true), 3);

Does anyone have a suggestion for how I can display recent exhibits?

Thanks.

What versions of Omeka and Exhibit Builder are you using? I think the issue here is just that recent doesn’t have any effect at all, so you’re getting the default sorting. sort_field and sort_dir are the current way to sort records.

Thanks for your help. The following worked for me:

$exhibits = get_records('Exhibit', array('featured' => true,'sort_field' => 'added', 'sort_dir' => 'd'), 3);
