I'm confused, You don't support anything greater than 2.0.17 Or less than 2.017?

I ask as I have 2.0.18 also and I am having the same exact problem.
I've read through the forums posts, the install and readme in the module itself.

I am trying to break with CBB as its latest version also has an issue with 2.0.18

Is there an issue with this version? I am about ready to dump xoops as support is almost non existent or you have to jump through hoops depending on which version you use, I am sure not going to downgrade.
What versions do d3forums work with? I noticed if you download a module for xoops, you have to scan for installs, especially when there special installs involved.
