%statistic_traded_with_villager% placeholder does not count the custom villager trades.

download placeholderapi and /papi ecloud download Statistic. then do /papi parse me %statistic_traded_with_villager%. remember the value. then again trade with custom shopkeeper villager and check if value is same or not. it is same.

it should count the custom villager trades too.

The vanilla villager statistics are not incremented by default when you open or trade with a shopkeeper. After all, shopkeepers are not necessarily villagers, and servers usually don't want custom shop plugins to interfer with vanilla statistics.
However, there is a setting increment-villager-statistics with which you can enable that the plugin manually increments the vanilla "talked to villager" and "traded with villager" statistics anyway whenever a player opens a shopkeeper trading window or performs a trade. So try out this setting and let me know if this works for you.

Solved, thanks
