I solved the problem. Add this to the functions file:
add_action('admin_init', 'restrict_wp_admin_only_admin');
function restrict_wp_admin_only_admin() {
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
wp_redirect(home_url());
exit;
}
if ( ! current_user_can('administrator') && ! wp_doing_ajax() ) {
wp_redirect(home_url());
exit;
}
}
