How is it that you've been able to get the Wiki path here, outside the /forums/ path?
My forum is installed at /forums/ and I'm not sure how this was achieved.

/forums/ can't be a real path. It has to be a rewrite created by vBSEO. If it's a real path, there is a bug in vBulletin that will make the editor break if you try to use it outside the forum path.
You can use Settings > Options > VaultWiki: Server Settings > Use Simple Wiki URLs and update your server config to handle it: https://www.vaultwiki.org/books/Mod-...-Configuration

Not following 100% but will give it a try.
What I am saying, is my forum is installed on the server in the directory /forums/
vBSEO is rewriting URLs as you say. Maybe here on your site /demo/ and /forums/ are rewrites and vB is installed at your root.
A couple more questions. When I read the documentation here:
https://www.vaultwiki.org/manual/Setting-Up-Categories
It looks like the namespace Categories should have been created on install? Here are my namespaces after installwiki-namespaces.jpg
What I am trying to achieve is similar to what you've done on this site. When I click "Wiki" above I go to /demo/ that is a portal into the wiki areas.
Do I need to do this:
https://www.vaultwiki.org/manual/Rep...the-Forum-View
If I want my forum in showforums.php to be a link to something like you have above?
What isn't clear in the Documentation, is a "recommended" forum setup for the Wiki. Should my forums be:
Wiki (default namespace linked to Wiki forum)
--- Books (books namespace linked to Books subforum of wiki forum)
--- Category (category namespace linked to Category subforum)
I think I am starting to get it. Slowly but surely.
Yes, vB is installed at our root. If your forums are in a physical directory, it IS possible to install the wiki in a different physical directory, as long as it is not a different sub-domain.
There is a setting that defines the path to the wiki. Change this and then output the .htaccess rules as described in the manual page I linked.
EDIT: I see your second post now. The other namespaces are not added by the installer. People found it more confusing to have namespaces they didn't put there themselves, than to have everything pre-installed in a "recommended" forum setup.
I recommend setting them up like this:
Wiki -- (Forum doesn't "act as forum", no wiki function)
-- Main (Default namespace linked to wiki forum)
-- Books (Books namespace linked to books forum)
-- Category (category namespace linked to category forum)
