I have tried to rename folders inside the zip file using ZipArchive::renameIndex() and ZipArchive::renameName(). Neither was successful. I believe that this is not a bug and wanted to document it.
ZipArchive::renameIndex
(PHP 5 >= 5.2.0, PHP 7, PHP 8, PECL zip >= 1.5.0)
ZipArchive::renameIndex — Renames an entry defined by its index
Description
Renames an entry defined by its index.
Parameters
-
index -
Index of the entry to rename.
-
new_name -
New name.
Return Values
Returns true on success or false on failure.
Examples
Example #1 Rename one entry
<?php
$zip = new ZipArchive;
$res = $zip->open('test.zip');
if ($res === TRUE) {
$zip->renameIndex(2,'newname.txt');
$zip->close();
} else {
echo 'failed, code:' . $res;
}
?>

To rename a folder, you must replace the folder name in the path of every file that it contains.
