I need to allow access to certain nodes for updating, but want everyone including anonymous to be able to view the nodes.

I installed ACL-5.x-1.4 and Content_Access-5.x-1.0 and set the access for a node to allow a particular user to update the node. I found that the user can indeed update the node, but no other user, except those with general edit access, can view the node.

Is there a way to set a universal/ wildcard access, including anonymous users, for viewing yet controlling the updating and deleting access? I would like something like inserting a user "*" for viewing, and another user "0" or "anonymous" for allowing also anonymous users to view the node.

yes, that's already possible.

Just set view access to the authenticated user role and the anonymous user role.

I did that, see attached screen capture. But when I logout and go to this "newsletter" page, I get "access denied."
