Uppercase and comma in \cite and parenthesis in \citeonline

Question

I would like the quote to look like this:

\cite should give (VECCHIO et al., 2017) and not (Vecchio et al. 2017)

and

\citeonline should give Vecchio et al. (2017) and not Vecchio et al. 2017

I'm using the following commands in the compiler:

\usepackage[brazilian,hyperpageref]{backref}
\usepackage[alf,abnt-repeated-title-omit=yes,abnt-emphasize=bf,abnt-etal-list=0]{abntex2cite}
\usepackage{cite}
\renewcommand\citeleft{(}
\renewcommand\citeright{)}

I'm using the following compiler: pt.overleaf.com/latex/templates/pcall-tcc/dywydszxydqd. And the document class is abntex2

Answer 1

Just delete that part

\usepackage{cite}
\renewcommand\citeleft{(}
\renewcommand\citeright{)}

Now it's working.
