I want to do some customizing for the topics page, specifically add social buttons. What php template do I edit to do the customizing? Also, will the edits be overwritten when the version is updated?

To find the template to modify, do this - vboptions > General Settings > Add Template Name in HTML Comments > set to Yes . Then go back to your page and view the source code and you will see the name of the template called around your part of the code. (Sometimes the template is the one mentioned at the very top of the page source.)

Templates are not stored in PHP files. They are in the database. You would access them by going to the Admin CP and then Styles & Templates -> Style Manager. Click the button on the far right with <<>> to expand the template list.
Templates are not overwritten on upgrade. If there are too many changes that makes a merge unsuccessful, we'll flag it and you'll have to make any template changes and merges manually to have them take effect on the upgrade version.Translations provided by Google.

I see. I guess what I am looking for are the php files (similar to wordpress) where I can go in and add extra divs or php. I supposed I can do that via adding modules and then styling them, but some changes I'd like to happen on a more global approach.Comment

templates are for html only. If you need to use php, then you need to write a plugin that runs the php and then spit it out into a template. Help for doing any of this would be over on vbulletin.org, the modification site.
