Guys, heroku does not allow us to embed their website inside an iframe. This issue is there for few websites which they do not allow to use it because to avoid malicious activities.

I saw a Stack-overflow question regarding this, created by @anjisvj . There seems to be an answer : https://stackoverflow.com/a/68043952

According to the answer we should modify the headers through a proxy server or another method. We might be able to use our AWS EC2 instance as a proxy server. Here’s an article on how to do it :https://dev.to/viralsangani/be-anonymous-create-your-own-proxy-server-with-aws-ec2-2k63

Problem that might occur as mentioned on the last article is that the free trial we are using for AWS might reach its limit.

Thanks, @YohanAvishke ! I’m wondering whether our EC2 is reliable.

We have 15GB of outbound bandwidth. I’m not sure how much activity will be there with the SEF leaderboard. But since we are linking leaderboard to the main site, this limit might be an issue.
