Statistics - How to migrate to the new module without losing data?

I am not sure anything is required except to add the contributed module into the codebase when upgrading to Drupal 11.

Nevertheless I am moving this issue to the contributed project because that is a better place for questions.

same question here, I have 100k+ views count for each of my users, I can't lose those views count, should I just enable this new module and disable the previous core Statistics module, then the previous node count will be kept ? Thanks

1. Always do a backup of the database first
2. Run composer require drupal/statistics
3. Enable counting at /admin/config/system/statistics

Do not uninstall at anytime. Doing so will delete all stats,

Since the module is using the same namespace, the contrib module should be automatically enabled after running the composer require command.

I did not loose any statistics with this module. But I played it safe by performing a backup before switching to the contrib Statistics module.

Also note this (taken from this module page):

No default view is provided in the initial release, to match Drupal the legacy Drupal core behavior. Enable counting at /admin/config/system/statistics.

Yes, this is not a new module. It's the same module, it just lives in a different place now.

Contrib record updated. Thanks all.
