Hello,

I want to make a nested slider similar to the one found on Military.com.

I have tried using slick carousel but, the only supplementary module to enable nested slider functionality for the slick carousel module is slick paragraphs and it is only available for drupal 8.

Any suggestions for making a nested slider in drupal 7?

Thanks.

I think what you may be looking for is Gallery Formatter which drives off the jCycle and jCarousel libraries (if I'm remembering correctly). See below. Otherwise Views Slideshow or Field Slideshow modules will allow for the same thumbnail carousel that you referred to in your link. I'll drop those links below as well. Cheers

Gallery Formatter
Field Slideshow
Views Slideshow

I was able to make it work with the tutorial I posted a link to in my comment but, it is a little jankey. I'll be sure to check those modules out.. thanks.

FYI, that info is not precise.

That type of display from your referenced site is not nested sliders.
They are known as synced sliders, or asNavFor, for many sliders out there.

Nested sliders are multiple slideshows within a single slideshow -- precisely a unique slideshow within each individual slide. This is what it looks like: https://www.drupal.org/files/project-images/slick-paragraphs.png

For nested sliders:
At D7, supported by Slick Field Collection, and Slick Views.
At D8, supported by Slick Paragraphs, and Slick Views.

For synced sliders:
Supported by most Slick formatters, and Slick Views.
The only exception is if Vanilla option is enabled.

Check out Slick Example.
