Compilations in v18 works as expected for me.
I need more information from you. What do you mean by "seems not working", what are you trying and what do you see?
If you have tagged using Picard can you also give me the Musicbrainz link for some example albums that you are having the issue with (I can tell from that how the files will be tagged).

Can you switch to Estuary the defualt skin please, that or Confluence, and see if you can see the compliations. The skin you are using may not have kept up with changes in v18 yet. What skin is that BTW, I am no use at regcognising them (sorry skinners).
What library nodes you see can be changed either by the user (I'll assume that you haven't), or by the skin. You remember correctly "Compilations" is one of the default library nodes in v17, and still same in v18. A bit bemused that you have a Compliations screenshot, all be it empty, but no compliations node in the final screenshot. So how did you get there? Reasonably sure this will all be a skin related issue.

The node is only shown if the database holds something flagged as a compilation, that is what the visible="Library.HasContent(Compilations)" does, since it doesn't appear at all that would suggest nothing is the database is identified as a compilation.

Btw, have you been customing the nodes? as if you haven't then there's no need for anything to be in /userdata/library/music so should be completely empty, try moving anything in there to a backup folder somewhere else on you pc.

OK, so different approach....
From the screenshot your tagging looks fine.
I had best check your database, see if that tells me anything. Can you upload your MyMusic70.db somewhere and then PM me with a link (you have enough posts I think to be able to do that).
Are the compilation albums appearing under the albums node, or as albums by "Various Artists" when that is selected as artist on the artists node?
