How do I get a page like this? All I can do is add articles and they are posted and viewed in the forum. Isn't there a step by step manual?? -

This is the new version 4.0 which you should be able to download in the Members Area. It sounds like you are using version 3 (which is recommended, unless you have a test bed or are particularly adventurous). You can access the manual for either via the Manual tab at the top of the site.
For specific usage questions, please post in the Usage forum, or start a new discussion on the appropriate demo page (something like "How do I do this?"- lead developer for VaultWiki -

Can I add an attachment to a comment here?
It does not look like I can. I expected this to display an image like a post would.Tommy the JOAT

I do not understand the widget syntax. Is there an example somewhere? Do I need to create an integration before I can use a widget in a forum post?
[widget]forum="4"[/widget] --Is that how I would display the thread list for the first 5 threads in forum id=4?Tommy the JOAT

You must specify the widget-type before any arguments. According to Special:WikiCodeList, the format of WIDGET is defined as:
On the same page, the description of the threads widget is as follows:Code:[widget]widget-type|arg1="value1" arg2="value2" ...[/widget]
Therefore, to show the threads list of forum ID 4:The threads widget-type will create a list of threads from that forum in the same style as the forum's threads list, sorted by most recent post.
This widget takes the following arguments:
- forum="forumID" - Required. The ID number of the forum from which the widget selects threads. If the ID does not correspond to a valid forum, the widget will not generate any output.
- title="CustomTitle" - A custom heading to use for the widget block. If a title is not specified, the name of the forum will be used instead.
- count="Number" - The number of threads to list from the forum, to a maximum of 5. If a count is not specified, 5 results will be listed.
- position="Position" - When used on a wiki page, this can alter where the widget appears. "Sidebar" will add the widget to the sidebar. If a position is not specified, the widget will appear where the BB-Code was entered.
Code:[widget]threads|forum="4"[/widget]
