Hello dmsumon,

I’m got same problem, but i’ve found a solution from this link http://stackoverflow.com/a/22513456/3086112

Just add simple configuration on your nginx server config.

server { server_name 107.170.126.xxx; # you can add other server_name if you need other IPs # or domain names such as without the www

    add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";

    return 301 $scheme://www.mydomain.com$request_uri;

}
