=Positions by round=

The table lists the positions of teams after each week of matches. In order to preserve chronological progress, any postponed matches are not included in the round at which they were originally scheduled, but added to the full round they were played immediately afterwards. For example, if a match is scheduled for matchday 13, but then postponed and played between days 16 and 17, it will be added to the standings for day 16.

League Two play-offs

The first round was contested between the winners of the 2017–18 Highland Football League (Cove Rangers) and the 2017–18 Lowland Football League (Spartans). The winners then played against the bottom club in League Two, and would have been promoted to League Two for the 2018–19 season if they had won.

Due to fixture congestion in the Highland League preventing a champion being crowned in time, the dates for the first round were pushed back a week.{{cite web |url=https://www.scottishfa.co.uk/news/pyramid-play-off-dates-confirmed/?rid=13929 |title=Pyramid Play-Off dates confirmed |publisher=Scottish Football Association |date=30 March 2018 |access-date=30 March 2018}}
