the template in the Bestiary does not mention Vampires having to rest in their coffins during the sunlight hours. It only mentions it for regenerating back after forced gaseous. Do vampires no longer have to spend the daylight hours in their coffins?

Nope, they don't need to. I know they didn't have to in 3.5 (2003), and most likely 3.0 (2000). 2E was the last edition where they had to rest during daylight I believe.
Also, vampires arn't even required to feed on blood. They can, but they don't have to. (Unless you're using the 3.5 book Libris Mortis.)

That's what I thought thanks

I think the intent is for them to feed on blood. It is just not in the rules because they are mostly for GM's and such things are assumed to be handled off-screen.
LM went into actual detail on it because it is an undead based book.I have not rule quotes for this, but it just does not make sense for the creature that is known for staying alive by sucking blood, not having to suck blood any longer.
