First I added an extra column to all the tables "hostuser" then I have changed the sql query function with str functions it will automatically add "where" or updates existing conditions also modifies insert and other queryes ... e.g. (where id='2321') will be (where id='2321' and hostuser='test') .
So What else Should I do ?

And how you determine who is the hostuser? Do forums have different URLs (like example.com/user1/ or user1.example.com/)?

Every forum (hostuser) has to have its own cache directory. There are config parameters, bans, etc in the cache directory, and they differ for each forum.

Also you can uninstall pun_repository (users will not be able to install extensions) and install the same set of extensions for every forum.
