Changing caption and slug is not updating folder Name (in admin)

    Folders/Subfolders tables shows ftp-directory as the folder Name.
    But … this -Name- remains the same, even if you change the folder Caption (post Title) and folder slug (post slug).

    eg: /gallery/flowers/
    The Flowers folder (post) Caption changed to Animals, and the slug is changed to animals. And even the images are about animals.
    1. The table still shows flowers for the Folder Name.
    2. Path show ftp-directory names as well.

    One option is when you change the slug this could change the ftp-directory name and update all the path for the image …

    A quick solution can be that the folder Tables and Path display the slug instead of the ftp-directory name.

    The path in file system is more-or-less independent from the Gallery Folder slug. I’ll keep it like this.
    When you change a folder path, You have to change all subfolders metadata and all attachments metadata in those subfolders. Furthermore, you would get not-found errors if you have embedded images in your posts.

    And how about the second solution? not showing the ftp-directory name …
    Least in the admin should look ok.

    Looks good.
    ps: Moving folders in admin not updating in FTP yet, maybe in a future version
