Actually I found it now, but I have another question . How do I make it so players can vote on what map to play next?

You can only do this while you are hosting a server. Just go to settings > advanced settings.

You should see a box to check whether or not to allow map voting.

So a dedicated server won't allow map vote??
Then How would I do it with admin rights? What't the command for changing to a certain map. Also, I was wrong when I said I figured out how to add custom maps to the map rotation. this is what I did in the KillingFloor.ini file:

[KFMod.KFMaplist]
MapNum=6
Maps=KF-BioticsLab
Maps=KF-NagomiSou
Maps=KF-WaterworksV4
Maps=KF-AquaStudy-V2
Maps=KF-Doom2-Final
Maps=KF-Farm
Maps=KF-Manor
Maps=KF-Offices
Maps=KF-WestLondon
Maps=kf-farm
Maps=KF-GothicV1
Maps=KF-Prison

So, this should tell the server to run these maps right?? If not then what should I be doing??

Just do all that configuration from webadmin. Go to xxx.xx.xx:8075 in your web browser where you replace the x's with your server's IP address. Login to webadmin, then click defaults up at the top. You can manage the maps that are in your maplist by clicking the maps link on the left sidebar, and change map voting options by clicking its link as well.

I'm not having any luck with trying to get the WebAdmin page to come up. I keep getting this messege: Probem loading Page
But, then again, I'm renting a server and their panel control page requires a password to get in.

Before asking for permissions from your server host, check that it's enabled in the KillingFloor.ini

1) To enable your Web Admin you need to go to your KillingFloor.ini and:

locate [UWeb.WebServer]
change bEnable=False > True

I contacted the admin of the server rental and he enabled it for me. I did the Benabled=True, though it didn't help. Now I have another problem. I uploaded to my redirect the compressed custom maps I want to play. Plus I have the maps on the server in the maps folder, but they are not showing up to play. Even when I use the
webAdmin it just shows the default maps. I found this and added them by name to it but it didn't help:

[KFMod.KFMaplist]
MapNum=7
Maps=KF-BioticsLab
Maps=KF-NagomiSou
Maps=KF-WaterworksV4
Maps=KF-AquaStudy-V2
Maps=KF-Doom2-Final
Maps=KF-Farm
Maps=KF-Manor
Maps=KF-Offices
Maps=KF-WestLondon
Maps=kf-farm
Maps=KF-GothicV1
Maps=KF-Prison

[DefaultKF0 MaplistRecord]
DefaultTitle=Default KF0
DefaultGameType=KFMod.KFGameTypePvP
DefaultActive=0
DefaultMaps=KF-BioticsLab
DefaultMaps=KF-Farm
DefaultMaps=KF-Manor
DefaultMaps=KF-Offices
DefaultMaps=KF-WestLondon

You can see that I added the maps to the maplist. Am I suppose to do anything with the Default KFO Maplist Record, since they are still not showing up??

Add the new maps to the Default KFO Maplist Record as well. This is written after the server is launched and looks to be based on the particular mod that's being run.

I'll try adding to the default map list then and hopefully that'll do the trick. Thanks

Well, that didn't help. I still can't get the custom maps to show up. I've tried using a map rotation in my ini file and I've tried using the webAdmin page, but only the 5 standard maps show up. I've placed the custom maps in the maps folder of the server and added the compressed maps to my redirect download folder.
Here's the info from my KillingFloor.ini file. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Ok. Take note that due to my location we'll probably experience delay.

I don't know where you're at but this one's typically midway relative to my position if you're Euro/US East. 66.154.116.162:9993 (West Coast).

I greatly appreciate the help. Now when would you be able to try this. Considering your location this could be tricky.
