Rename refactoring for PHP in Visual Studio Code

Is there a rename refactoring for PHP in Visual Studio Code? It is the only thing that stops me from fully move from NetBeans to VSC. Renaming is very importat for me (not search/replace).

PHP Tools for Visual Studio Code extension seems to be able to rename functions/vars in PHP.

At the time of this posting, the only way I know of to do this is to buy PHP Intelephese Premium. The free version and the other PHP intellisense plugins do not support rename.

There is an extension called Intelephense extension that provides expected functionality (in paid version as I remember). So I used it for several years in Visual Studio Code and it worked very well.

But I have finally moved to PhpStorm IDE for much more powerful refactoring capabilities and robust PHP support in general.

Try this rename symbol instead of the standard find/replace. Rename is bound to F2 for all files, CTRL - F2 for current file, may require installing a php language extension.

There are 

{
  "command": "editor.action.changeAll",
  "key": "ctrl+f2",
  "when": "editorTextFocus && !editorReadonly"
}

and

{
  "command": "editor.action.rename",
  "key": "f2",
  "when": "editorHasRenameProvider && editorTextFocus && !editorReadonly"
}

in the keybindings. F2 appears to work across all files, CTRL-F2 in the current file only.
