Most settings in this mod are available to modify via both the MCM and the Spellcrafting Journal item, whichever you prefer. This article lists all global variables that correspond to mod settings. If you'd like to set a variable to a value outside of the MCM range, or the variable you want isn't available in the menu, perhaps this list will help.
To change a global variable value, you can run in the console:

These are the versions of spell mods that premade patches were created for. Please note that patches will still work with other versions, as long as spell/tome/staff/scroll record IDs remain the same.

Location spells place an effect on a targeted surface of the map (rune spells, most summoning spells). CK-wise, these are Target Type "Target Location".
Self spells apply an effect directly to the player (Oakflesh, Close Wounds, Detect Life) or apply to enemies within a range of the player (Mass Paralysis, Mayhem). CK-wise, these are Target T... -
A very long-winded version of the patching instructions. Maybe it'll be helpful if you want to do something unusual with a custom patch.
If you'd like to make a patch in the same style as my premade patches (so you can have multiple patches, one for each spell mod), you can do so by making a copy of the blank base patch (Blank Base Patch\DinoSpellDiscovery - Blank Additive Patch.esp), renaming it appropriately (e.g. DinoSpellDiscovery - SomeSpellMod Patch.esp) and using this for the patch file name in step 4a.
1) Wherever you have SSEEdit.exe, there should be an "Edit Scripts" folder in the same directory; put _aaDinoSpellDiscoveryPatcher.pas and _aaDinoSpellDiscoveryPatcher.csv there.
2) Load DinoSpellDiscovery.esp and all mods containing spells, ...
